【耶穌復活 — 戰勝死亡的永恆勝利】
The Resurrection of Jesus — The Eternal Victory over Death
【聖言導引】
清晨的微光中，死亡的枷鎖被粉碎，石墓的大門已然開啟。這幅花窗描繪了人類歷史上最偉大的奇蹟：基督不再留在墳墓裡，祂已經光榮地復活了！這不僅是耶穌個人的凱旋，更是對所有信徒的承諾：光必戰勝黑暗，生命必戰勝死亡。
【聖經經文】
「那天使對婦女說：『你們不要害怕！我知道你們尋找那被釘死的耶穌。祂不在這裡，因為祂已經照祂所說的復活了。你們來看看安放過祂的地方。』」——《瑪竇福音 28:5-6》
【藝術賞析 】
光榮復活的救主： 畫面最上方是復活後的耶穌，祂立於神聖的光環與放射狀的光芒中，象徵祂的天主性徹底彰顯，粉碎了死亡的權勢。
空墳墓與天使： 畫面中央呈現了空蕩的石墓，一位守護的天使正指著墳墓。天使的存在代表了來自上天的訊息，宣告了新生命的到來。
驚奇的見證者： 畫面右側描繪了前來塗抹遺體的婦女們。她們由哀悼轉為驚訝的姿態，生動表現了從絕望到盼望的心靈轉折。
向上昇華的線條： 整幅作品的構圖充滿向上的流動感，從冰冷的石墓引導至上方輝煌的基督，象徵著信德能帶領我們超越塵世的困頓。
【心靈反思 】
聖女小德蘭曾說：「我不是在死，我是在進入生命。」她對復活的堅信，讓她能在平凡甚至痛苦的磨難中，依然保持喜樂。
「耶穌復活」是我們信仰的基石。在生活中，我們常會遇到像「石墓」般的黑暗時刻：失敗的打擊、失去的哀傷、對未來的恐懼。這幅花窗提醒我們，每一個看似終結的黑暗背後，天主都預備了復活的光榮。願我們在逆境中依然能像那些婦女一樣，有勇氣去尋找主，並在生命中的每一個「空墳墓」前，聽見天使宣告希望的聲音。

Theme:The Resurrection of Jesus — The Eternal Victory over Death
Introduction: In the dawn's early light, the chains of death were shattered, and the heavy stone of the tomb was rolled away. This window depicts the greatest miracle in human history: Christ no longer remains in the tomb; He has risen in glory! This is not just a personal triumph for Jesus, but a promise to all believers that light will conquer darkness, and life will overcome death.
Scripture: "Then the angel said to the women in reply, 'Do not be afraid! I know that you are seeking Jesus the crucified. He is not here, for he has been raised just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.'" (Matthew 28:5-6)
Artistic Appreciation
The Glorious Risen Savior: At the very top, the risen Jesus stands within a divine halo and radiating beams of light. This symbolizes the full manifestation of His divinity and His victory over the power of death.
The Empty Tomb and the Angel: The center shows the empty stone tomb with a guardian angel pointing toward it. The angel’s presence represents a message from heaven, announcing the arrival of new life.
The Wonderstruck Witnesses: On the right are the women who came to anoint the body. Their transition from mourning to astonishment vividly portrays the spiritual journey from despair to hope.
Vertical Uplift: The composition is filled with an upward movement, guiding the viewer from the cold tomb below to the brilliant Christ above, symbolizing how faith elevates us beyond earthly hardships.
Spiritual Reflection: St. Thérèse once said, "I am not dying; I am entering into life." Her unwavering belief in the Resurrection allowed her to maintain joy even amidst ordinary trials and physical suffering. The Resurrection of Jesus is the cornerstone of our faith. In life, we often encounter "tomb-like" moments of darkness: the sting of failure, the sorrow of loss, or fear of the unknown. This window reminds us that behind every apparent end, God prepares the glory of a resurrection. May we have the courage, like those women, to seek the Lord in times of trouble and hear the angelic voice of hope at every "empty tomb" in our lives.
