"For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us"
- 1 Corinthians 5:7
St. Irenaeus of Lyons comments on the all encompassing Crucifix of our Lord:
"And since He is the Word of God Almighty, who invisibly pervades
[…] the whole creation, and encompasses its length, breadth,
height and depth, for by the Word of God everything is administered, so too was the Son of God crucified in these four dimensions, having been imprinted in the form of the cross in everything; for it was necessary for Him, becoming visible, to make manifest His form of the cross in everything, that he might demonstrate, by His invisible form on the cross, His activity which is on the invisible level, for it is He who illumines the 'heights', that is the things in heaven, and holds the 'deeps', which is beneath the earth,
and stretches the 'length' from the East to the West, and who navigates the 'breadth' of the northern and southern regions, inviting the dispersed from all sides to the knowledge of the Father."
- St. Irenaeus of Lyons
