What You're Getting
The Black Wood St. Benedict Rosary
This is a St. Benedict rosary with 10mm black wooden beads, a 7cm St. Benedict crucifix, and a St. Benedict medal center, made in Israel. A special bag is included. The medal on the front shows Saint Benedict holding a cross in his right hand and his Rule for Monasteries in his left hand. On pedestals beside him are the poisoned cup that shattered when he made the sign of the cross over it, and a raven about to carry away a loaf of poisoned bread.
The Meaning of the St. Benedict Medal
The back of the medal has a cross as its dominant feature. On the arms of the cross are the initial letters of a Latin prayer: Crux sacra sit mihi lux! Nunquam draco sit mihi dux!, which means May the holy cross be my light! May the dragon never be my guide! For the white bead version browse the St. Benedict White Wood Rosary from Bethlehem.
10mm Beads and 7cm Crucifix
The 10mm bead size is larger than a standard rosary bead, giving this rosary a solid and distinctive feel in the hand. The 7cm St. Benedict crucifix is a substantial crucifix for a rosary of this type. For a dozen wooden rosaries in multiple colors browse the Dozen Wooden Rosaries from Nazareth 12 Pieces.
