Orthodox Icon of Father God
The hand-painted icon of the Lord Almighty, also known as Pantocrator, is one of the most famous and venerated images of Christ in Orthodox iconography. The name Pantokrator comes from the Greek word “παντοκράτωρ”, which means “all-powerful”, “omnipotent” or “omnipresent”.
The icon depicts Christ, usually full-length, with an elegant crown or wreath on his head representing his royal authority. He holds an open scripture in one hand as a symbol of God’s law and truth, and in the other hand Christ raises his right hand in blessing, which represents his mercy and forgiveness.
The icon of the Lord Almighty depicts Christ in his divine essence and represents him as the Heavenly King and Judge of the universe. It conveys the idea of his omnipotence, power and presence in the world. This image reminds believers that Christ governs all aspects of life and is the supreme judge who will judge all people according to their faith and deeds.
The icon of the Savior is seen as a symbol of heavenly authority, justice and mercy. It reminds the faithful of Jesus Christ’s unfailing love and concern for mankind. It also calls for obedience and submission to the divine will and points to the inevitability of Christ’s coming at the end of time to judge the living and the dead.
The icon of the Savior plays an important role in the spiritual life of believers and is used in prayer, veneration and various religious rites.
