Orans

Orantenhaltung

Orantenhaltung

The keeping of oranges is a bodywork in prayer. The prayer stands with shoulder-arms extended, the head either lowered or raised to heaven. In the ancient church, it was widely distributed, as evidenced by representations in the Roman catacombs. Orans or Orante is the term used to refer to the representation of saints or believers as a prayer in the visual arts. The upright standing distinguishes man from the beast and points to the resurrection from the dead; With the arms spread, the cross and the crucified Christ are indicated. Eastern Churches like Roman Catholic priests and Lutheran pastors of the self-employed Evangelical Lutheran Church always take this attitude when they speak a prayer as the foremost of the liturgy. In oriental and romanic countries, "oranges" have been widely used by the faithful. Die Orantenhaltung ist eine Körperhaltung beim Gebet. Der Beter steht mit in Schulterhöhe ausgebreiteten Armen, den Kopf entweder gesenkt oder zum Himmel erhoben. In der alten Kirche war sie allgemein verbreitet, wie etwa aus Darstellungen in den römischen Katakomben hervorgeht. Als Orans oder Orante bezeichnet man in der bildenden Kunst die Darstellung von Heiligen oder Gläubigen als Betende. Das aufrechte Stehen unterscheidet den Menschen vom Tier und verweist auf die Auferstehung von den Toten; mit den ausgebreiteten Armen werden das Kreuz und der gekreuzigte Christus angedeutet. Ostkirchliche wie römisch-katholische Priester und lutherische Pfarrer der Selbständigen Evangelisch-Lutherischen Kirche nehmen diese Haltung immer ein, wenn sie als Vorsteher der Liturgie ein Gebet sprechen. In orientalischen und romanischen Ländern ist die "Orantenhaltung" weithin auch bei den Gläubigen üblich geblieben.
