Selling the Sacred Fire - A Pilgrim's Return from Jerusalem (1913)
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a profound moment in Orthodox Christian tradition, as a weary pilgrim returns home from the holy city of Jerusalem, bearing the sacred fire. This miraculous event takes place the day preceding Orthodox Easter and is believed to date back over a thousand years. The photograph, taken in Russia around 1913, depicts a group of men gathered around the pilgrim, eager to purchase the flame. The sacred fire is said to be a miracle that ignites each year on the eve of Orthodox Easter at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. The pilgrims carry the flame back to their home communities, where it is used to kindle the new fire for the Easter Vigil. The image offers a glimpse into the rich history and traditions of the Orthodox faith, as well as the deep-rooted sense of community and connection that binds its followers. The pilgrim, dressed in simple clothing and carrying a staff, embodies the spiritual journey and sacrifice required to partake in this sacred ritual. The men in the background, with their hopeful expressions and outstretched hands, symbolize the anticipation and excitement of receiving the holy flame. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring power of faith and the importance of tradition in shaping the lives of individuals and communities. The sacred fire, passed from pilgrim to pilgrim, continues to be a beacon of hope and unity for Orthodox Christians around the world.
