The Icon of Jesus Christ: “Not Made by Hands”

The Orthodox Icon of Jesus Christ, known as “Not Made by Hands” or Mandylion Icon, is one of the most revered representations of Christ in Christian tradition. This wooden icon symbolizes faith, grace, and the miraculous power of the Savior, making it an essential piece of Christian art and sacred iconography.

The Divine Origin of the Icon

The story of this icon of Christ is rooted in the Church Tradition, specifically the miracle involving King Abgar of Edessa. According to the account, King Abgar suffered from leprosy and, hearing about the miracles of Jesus Christ, sent his painter, Ananias, to deliver a letter inviting Christ to visit Edessa. While Jesus denied the personal visit, He responded with divine mercy. After washing His face, He pressed a cloth, or ubrus, to His Divine face, leaving His holy image imprinted on the fabric.

This icon was delivered to King Abgar, and upon receiving it, he was miraculously healed. This event not only demonstrates Christ’s love and mercy but also established the sacred icon as a powerful spiritual tool for prayer and healing.

Symbolism and Tradition

The holy face icon represents Christ’s divine presence and His willingness to bring salvation and healing to the faithful. In Byzantine iconography, this miraculous image was often depicted in the domes of churches, where it served as a reminder of Christ’s sacrifice and glory.

Icons like the Not Made by Hands are cherished as spiritual treasures. They are used during prayer to strengthen faith and connect believers with the divine. Their intricate design, such as the representation of the Savior on an ubrus or tile, reflects the deep spiritual meaning behind the story.

A Perfect Religious Gift

This spiritual decor is not only a significant piece of Christian art but also an ideal religious gift for loved ones. Whether used for personal devotion or as a thoughtful offering, the icon of Christ brings a sense of peace and spiritual comfort to any home.
