The Rescuer - The ascending birds represent souls being rescued from destroying flames. The rescuer exposes his arms to the fire in order to hold it back while he guides the birds upward toward the horizon, toward light. The human figure is a "type" or symbolic metaphor of Christ. Each of us is called by God to do as the Lord does, in some form or other, through sacrifice and prayer.
