Jesus
Christ the Life-giver
Troparion (Tone 2)
We reverence thy spotless icon, O gracious
Lord, and ask forgiveness of our transgressions, O Christ our
God: for of thine own good will thou wast pleased to ascend the
Cross in the flesh, that thou mightest deliver from bondage to
the enemy those whom thou hadst fashioned. Wherefore, we cry
aloud unto Thee: Thou hast filled all things with joy, O our
Savior, for Thou didst come to save the world.
Christ is depicted with his right hand raised in blessing. In his left hand, the Gospel Book. His nimbus bears within it a Cross and the Greek words for "He Who Is".. His cloak is blue, to symbolize His humanity which he put on in His Incarnation, and His tunic is red, to represent His divinity that He always was in eternity.
This Icon is by the hand of Robert S. Burt. Inscription is in Greek.
