Reading the Icons – Icon of Pentecost
A study on the Icon of Pentecost which not only brings us into the reality of the event being depicted, but also teaches the theology behind the Descent of the Holy Spirit. The descent of the Holy Spirit though a tumultuous event brought about harmony among the Apostles. It is also a call to deification. The theme of the icon is a theme of waiting – for both the redeemed and those in darkness.
