This iconic figure is commonly viewed as a herald of divine guidance. In medieval times, the Old Testament prophets were widely believed to have predicted the arrival of Christ. Their prophecies were inscribed on phylacteries or scrolls that they held aloft before them as beacons of faith. A phylactery is a small leather pouch containing sacred Hebrew texts penned on vellum, worn by Jewish men during morning prayers as a poignant reminder to uphold the law's principles.
