The stone panel to the left
shows the seven sorrows of Mary, highlighting her grief
at the foot of the Cross. The seven sorrows are
(counterclockwise from lower left): the prediction of
Simeon; the flight into Egypt; losing Jesus in the
Temple; meeting Jesus on His way to Calvary; the
Crucifixion; the removal of Jesus' body from the Cross;
and the laying of Jesus' body in the tomb. The text
comes from the Litany of Mary. |
| Simeon predicted that Mary's heart
would be pierced by a sword when her boy would become
the salvation of many. The stone panel on the right
shows Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. The text,
which is taken from Matthew 21:9, is proclaimed by the
congregation during the Palm Sunday Liturgy.
"Blessed is He that comes
in the name of the Lord!"
