The Meaning of the Baptism Icon

The Baptism icon reveals the Theophany — the manifestation of the Holy Trinity.

Christ stands in the Jordan, sanctifying the waters. The Holy Spirit descends as a dove. The Father’s voice proclaims Him as beloved Son.

The river often parts beneath Him, symbolizing the renewal of creation.

This icon declares that through Christ, all of creation is purified and restored.
