    The Significance of the Number Seven in the Bible<\/h3>

    The Bible teaches that the number seven<\/strong> is a symbol of completeness<\/strong> and abundance<\/strong>.<\/p>

    In the icon of the Theotokos with the Seven Swords<\/strong>, the immense pain of her heart and the sorrow she endured during her earthly journey is depicted. The fullness of the grief and agony she experienced stems from the Divine Passion<\/strong> of Jesus Christ<\/strong>, and his Crucifixion<\/strong>.<\/p>
