Saturday of All Saints (Hexaemeron). Wooden orthodox icon.
The Saturday of All Saints (Hexaemeron) is a profound Orthodox commemoration honoring the countless righteous ones who pleased God from the creation of the world until the coming of Christ. This feast brings together the patriarchs, prophets, righteous men and women, and all the just of the Old Testament — those who lived before the fullness of Divine Revelation, yet walked faithfully in the light granted to them by God.
The term Hexaemeron refers to the “Six Days of Creation,” reminding us that from the very foundation of the world, God prepared humanity for holiness. The saints of this day include Adam and Eve, Abel the Righteous, Enoch, Noah, Melchizedek, Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Jacob, Joseph the All-Comely, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, the prophets, and all the just who awaited the coming of the Savior.
This sacred icon beautifully unites these holy figures in a single harmonious composition. At the center stands Christ the Logos, the eternal Word through whom all things were made, surrounded by the saints who served Him in hope before His Incarnation. Their serene faces reflect purity of heart, unwavering faith, and the expectation of redemption.
The icon invites the viewer into the mystery of salvation history — the unfolding of God’s plan “from the beginning.” It is a powerful symbol of continuity between the Old and New Covenants, reminding us that holiness is possible in every age and that every soul is called to unity with God.
This icon is treasured in homes and churches as a reminder of God’s faithfulness, the example of the righteous, and the unbroken chain of sanctity that leads to Christ.
