Byzantine Hand Painted Icon of the Three Holy Hierarchs.
The Three Holy Hierarchs are Saints and Theologians of the Christian faith who, guided by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God, left a great written and theoretical work so that people could find the way of Salvation.
Saint John Chrysostom, Saint Basil the Great and Saint Gregory the Theologian emerged as Great Fathers who taught holy living and reverent education.
Apolytikion
The three most great luminaries of the Three-Sun Divinity have illumined all of the world with the rays of doctrines divine and true; they are the sweetly-flowing rivers of wisdom, who with godly knowledge have watered all creation in clear and mighty streams: The great and sacred Basil, and the Theologian, wise Gregory, together with the renowned John, the famed Chrysostom of golden speech. Let us all who love their divinely-wise words come together, honoring them with hymns; for ceaselessly they offer entreaty for us to the Trinity.
