NAVE WINDOWS - SAMUEL

NAVE WINDOWS - SAMUEL

Samuel is one of the foremost priests and judges of Israel.

The apex shows the Lamp of God which burned in the Temple before the Ark of the Covenant, and was tended by the child Samuel as he "did minister unto the Lord."

Samuel, the founder of the School of Prophets, is shown with his Horn of State and his multi-coloured Breastplate, symbolising the twelve tribes.

The base section shows the parents of Samuel, having "lent him to the Lord,"being blessed by Eli the Priest (1 Sam. 2.20).
