Olive Wood Ichthus
|
This unique, free standing "Ichthus" is made of hand crafted olive wood in Bethlehem. It measures approximately 1 5/8" high x 4" long x 3/4" thick. "Ichthus" is an ancient Christian symbol meaning "Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior". In the early days of the church, Christians were persecuted for their faith. To avoid capture, they would draw the Ichthus symbol in the dirt, mud, sand or on walls of caves to let another Christian know that he too, was a fellow believer in Christ and that it was safe to talk about their faith without fear. This Ichthus is a tangible reminder of what it means to be a Christian and it is a meaningful gift for any occasion, including Confirmation. Makes a great desk ornament or paperweight. Comes with an explanation of the symbol. Was: $8.75 |
