The Baptism of Jesus

Picture
In loving appreciation of 
The Reverend John Adams Pinckney

The two figures of Jesus and John the Baptist dominate this window, which depicts the event that began Christ's adult ministry. The palm tree in the left background serves as both an indication that the scene has now shifted to the Jordan Valley, and as a symbol of victory. Jesus is standing in the shallow waters of the River Jordan. His clothing of white and red, and the red flowers at his feet, symbolize purity, joy, and sacrifice. He is a dazzling figure against the somber green and brown of John's garments. John carries a banner with the words "Ecce Agnus Dei" -- "Behold the Lamb of God" (John 1:29). With his right hand he holds a shell full of water over Jesus' head in the act of baptism.
