Teaching

You will observe that above the temple lamp appears IHC announcing Jesus as the Great Rabbi, meaning "Teacher".  Jesus went about His ministry teaching primarily with parables.  In this window, five such parables are illustrated.  In the center, there are the ten lamps, five lit and five unlit, reminding us of the wise and foolish virgins.  Just to the right is a lamb, for Jesus says I AM the sacrificial lamb, and I AM the good shepherd.  At the bottom of the window is depicted the parable of the two houses, one built on rock and one on sand, for in Him we find our foundation.  Finally, you see the tiny mustard seed that is sprouting forth among the rocks.
