The chapel of Saints Cosmas and Damian is at the southwest corner of the Sinai basilica. The holy table faces east, but the iconostasion is aligned with the wall of the basilica. The panel beneath the icon of the All-holy Theotokos depicts a repeating pattern of rosebuds. The iconostasion dates from the eighteenth century.


I very much love associating the Mother of God with roses. That’s really beautiful. Thank you Fr Justin! I always look forward to your blog posts!
