Christ Enthroned the Great High Priest Framed Canvas Icon

This icon presents Christ vested as the Great High Priest, robed in the sakkos and omophorion customarily worn by a bishop of the Church, and enthroned in majesty. The image draws upon the Epistle to the Hebrews, where Christ is revealed as the eternal High Priest who has entered once for all into the heavenly sanctuary, requiring no successor and no repetition of His offering, unlike the priests of the Old Covenant who stood daily to offer sacrifices that could never make perfect those who drew near. Every bishop of the Orthodox Church vests himself after this same ancient pattern at the Divine Liturgy, a visible sign that his own priesthood is received from and continually points back toward the one true and everlasting High Priest. This icon brings a quiet dignity to a study, an office, or a place of prayer, and serves as a fitting gift for a clergyman, a seminarian, or any soul drawn to contemplate the heavenly priesthood of Christ.

“But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood... he ever liveth to make intercession for them.” (Hebrews 7:24-25)

O Christ our God, great and eternal High Priest, who didst offer Thyself once for all upon the Cross and who ever livest to make intercession for us before the Father, unite our prayers to Thine own unceasing offering, that through Thee we may draw near to God with confidence. Amen.
