Canticle of Simeon
CANTICLE OF SIMEON (Luke 2: 29-32)
Christ is the Light of Nations
and the Glory of Israel
Lord, now you let your servant go in peace;
your word has been fulfilled:
My own eyes have seen the salvation
which you have prepared in the sight of every people:
a light to reveal you to the nations
and the glory of your people Israel.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be forever.
Amen.
The following are three of several renderings Rembrandt did of the Presentation of the Lord.
