Abraham is known principally for his complete devotion and obedience to God. The birth of their son Isaac came to Abraham and Sarah after a long and barren marriage - the fulfillment of a promise from God. Later God asked Abraham to make a sacrifice of his son Isaac which Abraham unhesitatingly prepared to do. It was God's ultimate test of Abraham's faith and obedience. When it was evident Abraham would comply, a ram was sacrificed instead. 

The Christian Church has always recognized in Abraham her spiritual ancestor because of his faith.

Aaron was the elder brother of Moses. On God's instructions, he and his sons were made priests to deliver the people of Israel. When the rods of each tribe were placed in the temple, Aaron's broke forth in blossom overnight signifying him as the leader making clear for all time his privilege and authority.

The window shows his rod with the brazen serpent. The Israelites wandering in the wilderness were troubled with plagues. Both were cured merely by gazing at the brazen serpent on Aaron's rod which has become historically the symbol of healing. 

The Saviour came to save Israel out of Egypt. He saved them by His cross, as the serpent saves them in health.

This window pictures young David, who was the shepherd of the Bethlemite family of Jesse. He was a gifted and many-sided personality. A gifted musician and poet, David was also a minstrel. He became known as the sweet singer of Israel.

This window also shows David with his sling shot, by which he killed the giant Goliath, routing the Philistines.

He later became King of Israel making Jerusalem the capitol, thus becoming known as the City of David.

Saint Peter wrote in his Epistle: As eight (Noah's family) were saved by water, so are we saved by Baptism. The rainbow represents the covenant that man would not be destroyed by water again. As the dove guided man from the Ark, so the Holy Spirit guides us in life.

The most sensitive and most personal of the Old Testament prophets, he was conscious throughout of a close union with God and of the value and responsibility of the individual soul.

His sufferings, his prophecy of the destruction of Jerusalem and his weeping over the doomed city, have traditionally been interpreted as figures of the life of Christ. The church has used the Book, together with the Book of Lamentations, ascribed to him in her offices for Passiontide.

When the prophet Jonah disobeyed God's command to go to Nineveh and convert the people there, he was shipwrecked and swallowed by the great fish. Then the fish spit him up on the shores of Nineveh, and he proceeded to convert the city.

Jonah came from death in the belly of the fish to bring new life to Nineveh, as Jesus came to life again from the bowels of the earth to call the whole world to a new life. The castor oil plant and the worm portrayed represent the necessity of joy in our religious life.
