Resurrection – L

Description

In this modern Greek icon two angels fly overhead bearing the instruments of Christ’s Crucifixion, which is the gateway to His rising from the dead.  Christ stands here over the broken doors of Hades and pulls Adam and Eve out of their tombs to bring them back to Paradise, while St. John the Baptist and Kings David and Solomon both look on and are also brought with them into the Brightness of Heaven.  This is the Feast of Feasts and the Night of Nights in all of history, when most fully Eternity intersects and interpenetrates temporal time, and all life on earth.
