Regarding with the deeper symbolic approach of the Cross, as pointed out by Professor P. Vassiliadis, the Cross was interpreted in the first Church

a) prophetic, in relation to the martyrdom of the prophets,

b) eschatologically / apocalyptically, as the fulfillment of God's will, as reflected in the Scriptures;

c) dialectically, as a condition for the exaltation of Jesus,

d) thanksgiving / testament, in direct relation to the tradition of the Eucharist and

e) salvation, as death for the sake of all people, which renders inactive the bloody atoning sacrifice of the Temple.

The most disgraceful and humiliating death instrument thus becomes again a symbol of real sacrifice, which is not performed by man to appease the divine, but by God to save man.

It thus becomes a symbol of divine love, affection and salvation of the human race as it is founded from the beginning in the texts of K.D. The word of the Apostle Paul "I do not boast, do not boast in the Cross of my Lord" summarizes, we would say, the relationship of the Christian with the sign of the Cross.

This relationship reaches in the cases of the saints until the choice of the way of their own death, since some, such as the Apostles Peter and Andrew, preferred to leave the present life with the death of the cross.

The symbol of the Cross is the highest "denunciation" of God's love for people. A great revelation is the Crucified Lord.

It is a symbol of peace and reconciliation. Thanks to the sacrifice of the Crucified, the war that the alienated man had declared against God, in creation, in his fellow man and in himself ended.

It is also a symbol of victory against the devil's state and the forces of darkness.

And the believer, in turn, opposes the devil and his methods as the Cross of the Lord is the only and irresistible shield of each of us against the attacks of the wicked.

 Ἀνηρέθης, ἀλλ 'οὐ διηρέθης, Λόγε, ῆς μετέσχες σαρκός.

O Lord, the temple speaks to you in the time of passion,

ἀλλά και οὕτω μία ἦν σταπόστασις τῆς θεότητος και τῆς σαρκός σου.

in both, for you are a Son,

Word of God, God and man.
