The original seal of the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land, which dates back to 1217, during the days of Saint Francis himself. Their first headquarters was on Mount Zion, in the place of the Upper Room (the coenaculum). It is for that reason that the Washing of the Feet and the Descent of the Holy Spirit are depicted on the seal, since those events occurred in the Cenacle.

Enter eagerly into the treasure-house that lies within you, and so you will see the treasure-house of heaven: for the two are the same, and there is but one single entry to them both. The ladder that leads to the Kingdom is hidden within you, and is found in your own soul. Dive into yourself and in your soul you will discover the rungs by which to ascend. + St. Isaac the Syrian +

For love toward God does not at all tolerate hatred for man. + St. Maximos the Confessor +
