Pantokrator icon in the chapel at my parish

The name of the icon means 'the ruler of all' or 'the Almighty.' It shows Christ surrounded by the angels.

In the Pantokrator Ikon, in the corona or the glory (the halo) there is the Greek: 'ου μη' that is a double negation of Christ 'having no beginning'. "He Who has Being."
