Rublev’s Icon of the Trinity This icon is one that is very familiar in our Parish,

in part because we have taken the name of the

Trinity for our Parish. Have we taken the time to

look at it in detail? This article takes a look at one

interpretation of its meaning and poses some

interesting questions for us to consider.

The icon of the Trinity was painted around 1410

by Andrei Rublev It depicts the three angels who

visited Abraham at the Oak of Mamre – but is

often interpreted as an icon of the Trinity. It is

sometimes called the icon of the Old Testament

Trinity. The image is full of symbolism -

designed to take the viewer into the Mystery of

the Trinity.

The three faces are identical...how might this help us to

understand the nature of the Trinity? The figures can be enclosed

in a circle

What might this tell us about the life of the Trinity?

All the figures wear a blue garment - the colour of the heavens...but each wears

something that speaks of Their own identity

- A blue robe speaking of divinity A green robe representing new life

- The Spirit - (the figure on the right)

Spend time gazing at the newly unfurled leaves against a blue sky.

Reflect on the link between what you see and the figure in the icon.

The Spirit touches the table - earthing the divine life of God.

Reflect on that touch and the words of invocation: "Lord, You are holy

indeed, the fountain of all holiness. Let Your Spirit come upon these gifts

to make them holy...." Reflect on that touch and its meaning for the life

of the world...

(con’t)

Rublev’s Icon of the Trinity

- The Spirit - (con’t)

Behind the figure is a mountain. Mountains are places where people

often encountered God -places where heaven and earth seem to touch.

Moses met God on mountains. Jesus was transfigured whilst in prayer

on a mountain. Reflect on your own "mountain top" experiences -times

when you have felt very close to God -when you have felt transfigured

and filled with the Spirit. (These need not necessarily have taken place

on mountain tops!)

Elijah could not find God in the earthquake - the wind -- the fire on the mountain - but

in the gentle breeze which carried the voice of God deep into his being. When have

you been aware of the presence of the dynamic stillness which is the Spirit within you?

The Spirit inclines - drawing our gaze to the central figure - representing Christ.

The figure wears the blue of divinity. The brown garment speaks of the earth - of His

humanity. The gold stripe speaks of kingship.

- The Christ - (The centre figure) Reflect on the form of kingship being represented here...

The Christ figure rests two fingers on the table - laying onto it His

divine and His human nature.

He points to a cup filled with wine...What does this represent?

Behind the figure is a tree. This could be the oak tree at Mamre

under which the three angelic visitors rested.

The hospitality of Abraham and Sarah was rewarded in the gift of a son. What does

this tell us of the importance of hospitality?

(con’t)

Rublev’s Icon of the Trinity - The Christ - (con’t) The tree may also represent the Cross -the tree on which our

Saviour died. The tree of death which becomes the tree of eternal

life - lost to humanity by the disobedience of Adam and Eve -

restored to us by the obedience of Jesus. Reflect on the paradox

of the Cross -- the place where death and life confront each other -

- where death gives way to resurrection -and eternal life.

It may also be the tree of life in Revelation bearing twelve kinds

of fruit one for each month of the year

and the leaves of this tree are for the healing of the nations...What

is the promise here - waiting to be fulfilled?

- The Father - (Figure on the left)

The Christ figure in turn inclines towards the figure on the left -

and we are drawn to gaze there too.

A figure at rest within Itself. The blue garment almost hidden by

a shimmering - ethereal robe.

the One who is Creator who cannot be seen by His human

creatures.

Both hands clasp the staff . All authority in heaven and on earth

belong to the Father.

What kind of authority do you find in the figure in the icon?

Behind the figure is a house the dwelling place of God. "In my

Father's House are many mansions - I go to prepare a place for

you..."

What is the promise for you in these words of Jesus?

St. Cyril of Alexandria on Icons

Even if we make images of pious men it is not so that we might adore

them as gods but that when we see them we might be prompted to

imitate them; and if we make images of Christ, it is so that our minds

might wing aloft in yearning for Him.

П’ятидесятниця Pentecost

Після вознесіння Ісуса Христа настав десятий день: це

був п’ятдесятий день після Воскресіння Христового. У

євреїв було велике свято П’ятидесятниці в пам’ять

Синайського законодавства. Всі апостоли разом із

іншими учнями Христовими та іншими віруючими

одностайно перебували в одній світлиці в Єрусалимі.

Була третя година дня за єврейським рахунком годин,

тобто, по-нашому — дев’ята година ранку.

Раптом зчинився шум з неба, ніби буря раптова

зірвалася, і переповнила ввесь той дім, де перебували учні Христові. І з’явилися вогненні

язики і спочили (зупинилися) по одному на кожному з них. Всі сповнилися Духа Святого і

стали славити Бога різними мовами, яких раніше не знали. Так Дух Святий, за обітницею

Спасителя, зійшов на апостолів у вигляді вогненних язиків, на знак того, що Він дав

апостолам здатність і силу для проповіді Христового вчення всім народам; зійшов же у

вигляді вогню на знак того, що має силу спалювати гріхи й очищати , освячувати й зігрівати

душі.

В Єрусалимі в цей час було багато євреїв, які прийшли з різних країн на свято. Апостоли

вийшли до них і стали проповідувати на їхніх рідних мовах про воскреслого Христа.

Проповідь так подіяла на тих, хто слухав її, що багато хто повірив і стали питати: «Що ж нам

робити?» Петро відповів їм: «Покайтеся і хрестіться в ім’я Ісуса Христа на прощення ваших

гріхів, тоді і ви отримаєте дар Святого Духа».

Таких, що увірували в Христа і охоче прийняли хрещення, виявилося того дня близько трьох

тисяч чоловік. Таким чином, почало будуватися на землі Царство Боже, тобто Церква

Христова. Православні християни в цей день прикрашають будинки і храми зеленими

гілочками, квітами. Звичай цей іде ще від старозавітної Церкви, коли в П’ятидесятницю

будинки і синагоги прикрашалися зеленню на пам’ять про те, як при Синайській горі все цвіло

і зеленіло в день, коли Мойсей отримував скрижалі закону. Сіонська світлиця, де на апостолів

зійшов Святий Дух, у той час, за загальним звичаєм, теж була прикрашена гілками дерев і

квітами. А ще квітучі гілки нагадують нам про те, що під дією благодаті Божої людські душі

розцвітають плодами чеснот.
