Catholic WORD of the Week

“Jesse-Window – A stained-glass window depicting Christ’s human genealogy.  Jesus is shown at the top of a multibranched tree, while His best-known ancestors occupy the lower branches.  The window’s name is derived from Jesse, the father of King David, who is shown as the root of the tree, in accord with the identification of him as the “root” of the family line in Sacred Scripture (1 Samuel 16:18-22; Is. 11:1).” Our Sunday Visitor’s Catholic Encyclopedia, page 531-532
