Also called "the voice who screams
in the desert", Saint John the
Baptist is the last prophet of The
Old Testament, the one who prepared
the comming of Messiah. Named by
Jesus "the most hallowed man,
everborn from a woman", St. John
the Baptist ended his work in a
plenar sacrifice, killed by king
Irod wickness for his doughter
charms. The entire royal family
has been disturbed by Baptist's
accusations of adultery (king Irod
took his brother's wife as his
queen).Salomee, Irod step doughter
wanted the Baptist's head on a
tray, as a gift for her sensual
dance.
The Baptist will always remain
the voice of conscience and the
foregoing of our action,the voice
who screams: "This is the right
way...Hey! You're heading in a
wrong direction...But if you're
still heading there, here...,
take my head on this tray!"
