The Annunciation
The Annunciation
In the tradition of the iconostasis, the second icon to the left ( that is north) of the Royal Door is that of the dedication of the particular local chuch. In this case it is the Annunciation. The Annunciation of the Archangel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary of her conception by the Holy Spirit is recorded in Luke 1,26-28. The Feast of the Annunciation is celebrated on March 25, this being nine months prior to December 25, the Nativity.
