High Priestly Mitre

High Priestly Mitre with gold embroidery

High Priestly Mitre. It has its beginning in the Old Testament. It symbolizes the crown of thorns, but also the royal office of the Lord, since the High Priest is a living image of Christ in His Church. Its use expanded after the 16th century.

Its design is based on the crown of the Emperors of the Byzantine Empire and its use began after the fall of Constantinople, as a symbol of the continuity of political organization from the ecclesiastical one. It was effectively established after the 16th century.

Its original symbolism was the crown of thorns, which Christ wore before the Crucifixion. But it also symbolizes the royal office of the Lord, in the sense that the high priest who wears it is the living image of Christ in the Church.

The High Priest putting on the Mitre, pronounced, He has placed on his head a crown of precious stones, which has given him life, and has given him long life for ever and ever, now and ever and for ever.
