These Trinity symbols share three similar elements: divergent rays, simple triangles, and Hebrew text of God's Name. During the late 1800s through WWI times, it was usually to be seen painted over the altars In our churches, particularly in the classic ones built during the former two centuries, either encircled with divergent rays or surrounded by clouds to give It prominence and effect. The inscription at the center of the triangle is the name of God or Jehovah, written in Hebrew characters. The circle of rays may be accepted as symbolic of eternity; but when the idea of eternal existence is desired to be distinctly expressed, a circle should be described around the emblem or a circular shape of rays, indicative of glory and brightness, may be placed around the triangle if considered desirable.
