The prophet Ezekiel speaks about the merciless destruction of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, but then God says touch no-one with the mark on their foreheads. (Ezekiel 9). What is this mark? This is the letter TAU, the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The form of a cross. It is reminiscent of the mark of Cain (on his brow), which protected him from the punishment he deserved. Fr. Eric Nicolai speaks about the saving nature of the Cross of Christ, and how it has such meaning in our life. Preached at Kintore College, Toronto, September 14, 2022. Music: Handel, Opera Rinaldo, Aria "Lascia ch'io pianga", arranged for guitar by Bert Alink. Thumbnail: The Battle of the Milvian Bridge (Giulio Romano) from 1524. In the Stanze di Raffaello, in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican City.
