Agnus Deis (medallions) (medallions (medals), medals, ... Visual and Verbal Communication (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Refers to disks of wax bearing the sign of the Agnus Dei, which is a symbol of Christ in the form of a lamb bearing a cross with a halo round its head. The small cake of wax was stamped with such a figure and blessed by the Pope. The wax may be the remains of the Pascal candle, solemnly blessed by the Pope on the Thursday after Easter. Disks may be round or oval. Figures of saints or the name and arms of the Pope are commonly impressed on the reverse. Agnus Deis may be worn suspended round the neck, or they may be preserved as objects of devotion. In virtue of the consecration they receive, they are regarded as "sacramentals," like holy water or blessed palms.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 指稱帶有神之羔羊這個基督象徵的蠟製圓盤,此象徵為羔羊的頭部有一環繞著光環的十字架。這個小蠟塊印上這樣的圖案並受到教宗的祝聖。此種蠟塊可能源自復活蠟燭,由教宗在復活節後的星期四加以正式祝聖。此蠟盤可為圓形或橢圓形。背面則通常會印上聖人圖像或是教宗的名字及紋章。神之羔羊蠟盤可以掛在脖子上,也可被當作奉獻物加以保存。由於這類物件所接受的祝聖儀式,它們也像聖水或被祝聖過的棕櫚樹一樣被視作聖儀。 
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar een rond of ovalen medaillon van was met het teken van de Agnus Dei: het symbool van Christus in de vorm van een lam dat een kruis draagt en een stralenkrans rond de kop heeft. De afbeelding werd in een klein stukje was gedrukt, waarna de paus het medaillon zegende. De was kan afkomstig zijn van gebruikte paaskaarsen en wordt dan op de donderdag na Pasen gezegend door de paus. Gewoonlijk staan op de achterkant afbeeldingen van heiligen of de naam en de wapens van de paus. Agnus Dei's draagt men aan een ketting rond de nek of worden als heilige objecten bewaard. Door de zegening van de medaillons beschouwt men ze als ���sacramentaliën', zoals wijwater en gezegende palmen. 
German ..... Bezieht sich auf Täfelchen auf Wachs, die das Zeichen des Agnus Dei tragen, ein Christussymbol in der Form eines ein Kreuz tragendes Lammes mit einem Heiligenschein um seinen Kopf. Die Figur wurde in die kleine Wachsplatte eingeprägt und vom Papst gesegnet. Das Wachs kann der Rest der Osterkerze sein, der vom Papst am Donnerstag nach Ostern feierlich gesegnet wird. Das Täfelchen kann rund oder oval sein. Auf der Rückseite sind gewöhnlich Heiligenfiguren und der Name und das Wappen des Papstes eingeprägt. Agnus Deis können um den Hals hängend getragen oder als Objekte der Andacht aufbewahrt werden. Kraft der Weihe, die sie empfangen, werden sie als "Sakramentalien" angesehen, wie Weihwasser oder gesegnete Palmzweige. 
Portuguese ..... Refere-se aos discos de cera com o sinal de Agnus Dei, um símbolo de Cristo na forma de cordeiro com uma cruz e uma auréola em sua cabeça. A pastilha pequena de cera foi estampada com uma figura e abençoada pelo papa. A cera pode ser os vestígios do Círio Pascal, solenemente abençoada pelo papa na quinta-feira depois da Páscoa. Os discos podem ser ovais ou redondos. Figuras de santos ou o nome do papa são geralmente impressos no verso. Agnus Deis podem ser usados no pescoço ou podem ser preservados como objetos de devoção. Em razão da consagração que recebem, eles são considerados como "sacramental", assim como a água benta.
