Icon of the Protection (Veil) of the Most Holy Mother of God. In most Slavic languages the word “cerement” has a dual meaning of “veil” and “protection.” The Russian word Pokrov (Покров), like the Greek Skepi (Σκέπη), has a complex meaning. First of all, it refers to a cloak or shroud, but it also means protection or intercession. For this reason, the name of the feast is variously translated as the Veil of Our Lady, the Protecting Veil of the Theotokos, the Protection of the Theotokos, or the Intercession of the Theotokos. (from “Protection of the Mother of God,” at an Orthodox site, but Eastern Rite Catholics practice the devotion, too, which is pre-schism.)
