Crann Iese – The Jesse Tree
Presented by Candidates for Confirmation
Section A – Creation and Fall
1. Our first symbols tell us the story of creation. The Book of Genesis tells us that God created the heavens and the earth, and that He saw it was good.
2. Adam and Eve, our first parents, were tempted by the serpent to eat the forbidden fruit.
3. The apple reminds us of their sin.
Roinn B – na Patrarcaí
1. Roimh an Díle, ghlaoigh Dia ar Naoi a chlann agus na hainmhithe go léir a shábháil. Thóg sé an áirc. Comhartha dhílseacht Dé an bogha síne.
2. B’é Ábrahám athair losác. Cuireann Dia triail ar Ábrahám agus tá seisean sásta a aon mhac a ofráil go humhal do Dhia. Cuireann an altóir, an t-adhmad agus an tine umhlaíocht Ábrahám i gcuimhne dúinn.
3. Chonaic lacób i dtaibhreamh dréimire a thaispeánann an ceangal eadraínn agus Dia.
Section C – The Law and the Prophets
1. Moses is the abandoned baby in the basket who was chosen to lead God’s people from slavery into the promised land. Although he himself murdered an Egyptian, he obeys God and is chosen to bring us the 10 Commandments.
2. The prophets had a special vocation or calling to prepare the way of the Lord. By sounding the ram’s horn like a trumpet they called the people together to listen to God’s word written on the scroll.
3. David, the son of Jesse, was a shepherd who was called by God to be King. David went against God by sinning seriously, but repented and wrote many of the psalms showing his sorrow and love for God. The harp tells us of his music, and the crown and star show him as king.
Roinn D – Teaghlach Dháibhí
1. Aoire ab ea Dáibhí, mac lese, a ghlaoigh Dia le bheith ína Rí. Bhí Dáibhí easumhal do Dhia mar pheacaigh sé go trom, ach dhein sí aithrí agus scríobh sé a lán de na sailm a nochtann a aithrí agus a ghrá do Dhia. Cuíreann an chruit in iúl gur ceoltóir é, an choróin agus an réalt gur rí é.
2. Eoin Baiste an fáidh mór deiridh. B’é a mhisean an bealach a réiteach d’Íosa tríd an bpobal a ghlaoch ar ais óna bpeacaí. Cuireann an sliogán i gcuimhne dúinn gur bhaist sé Íosa.
3. Rugadh Seosamh de theaghlach Dháibhí. Ba é siúinéir Nasarat é, duine fíréanta.
4. Bhí Muire luaite le Seosamh. Cuireann an lile agus na réaltaí in iúl a naofacht agus a misean le bheith ina máthair ag Emanúél, an Té atá le teacht.
O Come, O Come Emmanuel
O come, O come Emmanuel,
and free your captive Israel
that mourns in lonely exile here
until the Son of God appear.

Chorus:
Rejoice, rejoice O Israel
to you shall come Emmanuel.

O royal branch of Jesse’ tree,
redeem us all from tyranny
From pain of hell your people free,
and over death win victory.

Ardaigh do chroí, a Iosráél,
Chugat thiocfaidh Emanúél (2)
