Because the lion was traditionally considered the king of the beasts, and the eagle the king of the birds, by the Middle Ages, the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. Since classical antiquity, griffins were known for guarding treasures and priceless possessions.[1] In Greek and Roman texts, griffins and Arimaspians were associated with gold deposits of Central Asia. Indeed, as Pliny the Elder wrote, “griffins were said to lay eggs in burrows on the ground and these nests contained gold nuggets.”[2] In medieval heraldry, the griffin became a Christian symbol of divine power and a guardian of the divine. Phoenix In Ancient Greek folklore, a phoenix (/ˈfiːnɪks/; Ancient Greek: φοῖνιξ, phoînix) is a long-lived bird that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. Some legends say it dies in a show of flames and combustion, others that it simply dies and decomposes before being born again.[1] Most accounts say that it lived for 500 years before rebirth.[2] Herodotus, Lucan, Pliny the Elder, Pope Clement I, Lactantius, Ovid, and Isidore of Seville are among those who have contributed to the retelling and transmission of the phoenix motif. The phoenix symbolized renewal in general, as well as entities and concepts such as the Sun, time, the Roman Empire, Christ, Mary, and virginity.[ Harpy In Greek mythology and Roman mythology, a harpy (plural harpies or Harpuiai, Greek: ἅρπυια,[1][2] harpyia, pronounced [hárpyi̯a]; Latin: harpȳia) is a half-human and half-bird personification of storm winds. They feature in Homeric poems.[3] They were generally depicted as birds with the heads of maidens, faces pale with hunger and long claws on their hands. Roman and Byzantine writers detailed their ugliness.[4] Pottery art depicting the harpies featured beautiful women with wings. Ovid described them as human-vultures Pelican he pelican has long been an emblem of Christ. The connection comes from a mythical notion arising in the middle ages that when food was scarce a mother pelican would stab her own breast with her bill and feed her children with her own blood. She was seen as a symbol of our Savior shedding His blood for us. Thomas Aquinas included a reference to Jesus as the “Good Pelican” in his hymn Adora te devote (I devoutly adore you), reflecting on Christ’s presence in the sacrament of Communion. Perhaps the pelican myth (pelicans do not actually feed their children with their blood) helped Christians come to terms with what is actually a more disturbing image in our text for this Sunday, John 6:51-59. In a clear evocation of Holy Communion, Jesus says in verse 53, “unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.”
