\n Le pape Fran\u00e7ois contemple une relique historique de la chaire de saint Pierre le 2 octobre 2024. \/ Cr\u00e9dit : Bureau de presse du Saint-Si\u00e8ge<\/span>\n<\/div>\n

R\u00e9daction de Washington, D.C., 4 octobre 2024 \/ 18h15 (CNA).<\/p>\n

Mercredi<\/a>, le 2 octobre, le Saint-P\u00e8re a eu l'occasion de voir la relique historique de la chaire de saint Pierre dans la sacristie Ottoboni de la basilique Saint-Pierre, apr\u00e8s avoir c\u00e9l\u00e9br\u00e9 la messe sur la place Saint-Pierre en amont de la deuxi\u00e8me session du Synode sur la synodalit\u00e9. La photo le montrant assis devant la chaise est devenue virale. <\/p>\n

Fran\u00e7ois est le premier pape depuis 1974 \u00e0 avoir vu la relique qui aurait appartenu \u00e0 saint Pierre ap\u00f4tre. <\/p>\n

Habituellement, la chaise historique en bois est ench\u00e2ss\u00e9e dans le grand monument de la chaire r\u00e9alis\u00e9 par le sculpteur du XVIIe si\u00e8cle Gian Lorenzo Bernini, qui est install\u00e9 directement au-dessus de l'autel dans l'abside de la basilique vaticane. <\/p>\n

Cependant, la Fabrique de Saint-Pierre, une institution vaticane charg\u00e9e de la restauration et de l'entretien de la basilique, a r\u00e9cemment retir\u00e9 la chaise du monument dans le cadre des travaux de restauration du Baldaquin du Bernin, le dais qui surplombe l'autel de la Chaire, selon Vatican News. <\/p>\n

Quelle est l'histoire derri\u00e8re la \u00ab relique de la chaise \u00bb ?<\/h2>\n

Une tradition ancienne soutient que saint Pierre lui-m\u00eame s'est assis sur cette chaise lors de ses sermons aux premiers chr\u00e9tiens de Rome. <\/p>\n

Cependant, selon Papal Artifacts<\/a>, les arch\u00e9ologues ont d\u00e9termin\u00e9 que seul le squelette en bois d'acacia de la chaise, dans sa forme actuelle, remonte \u00e0 cette \u00e9poque. Le reste de la chaise est compos\u00e9 de ch\u00eane, fix\u00e9 au squelette original par des bandes de fer, et serait une reconstruction r\u00e9alis\u00e9e \u00e0 l'\u00e9poque byzantine. Les plaques d'ivoire figurant sur la partie inf\u00e9rieure du tr\u00f4ne sont \u00e9galement attribu\u00e9es \u00e0 cette p\u00e9riode. Elles repr\u00e9sentent des croquis d'Hercule et diverses constellations.<\/p>\n

Le pape Alexandre VII a charg\u00e9 le Bernin de construire le monument o\u00f9 la chaise est habituellement ench\u00e2ss\u00e9e pendant son pontificat au XVIIe si\u00e8cle. Le Bernin a achev\u00e9 le monument entre 1647 et 1653, mais il n'a \u00e9t\u00e9 install\u00e9 au-dessus de l'autel de la basilique Saint-Pierre qu'en 1666.<\/p>\n

Le tr\u00f4ne en bronze dor\u00e9 est plac\u00e9 sur un fond de nuages dor\u00e9s, directement au-dessus de l'autel principal, compos\u00e9 de marbre noir et blanc d'Aquitaine et de jaspe rouge de Sicile.<\/p>\n

Au-dessus de la chaise, une paire d'anges tient la tiare et les cl\u00e9s symbolisant l'autorit\u00e9 papale, tandis que quatre grandes statues de saint Ambroise, saint Augustin, saint Athanase et saint Jean Chrysostome entourent le monument. Sur la chaise elle-m\u00eame, on trouve trois bas-reliefs en or repr\u00e9sentant les \u00e9pisodes \u00e9vang\u00e9liques de la remise des cl\u00e9s (Matthieu 16, 19), \u00ab Pais mes brebis \u00bb (Jean 21, 17) et le lavement des pieds (Jean 13, 1-17).<\/p>\n

Que symbolise la chaire de saint Pierre ?<\/h2>\n

Chaque ann\u00e9e, le 22 f\u00e9vrier, l'\u00c9glise c\u00e9l\u00e8bre la f\u00eate de la Chaire de saint Pierre<\/a>, qui est \u00e9galement un titre symbolique pour la papaut\u00e9 elle-m\u00eame. <\/p>\n

En 2006, lors d'un discours prononc\u00e9 durant son audience g\u00e9n\u00e9rale pour la f\u00eate de la Chaire de saint Pierre, le pape Beno\u00eet XVI a d\u00e9crit la signification spirituelle de ce symbole comme \u00ab un signe privil\u00e9gi\u00e9 de l'amour de Dieu, l'\u00e9ternel Bon Pasteur, qui a voulu rassembler toute son \u00c9glise et la conduire sur le chemin du salut \u00bb. <\/p>\n

La v\u00e9n\u00e9ration de la chaise par le Saint-P\u00e8re \u2014 symbole de l'unit\u00e9 de l'\u00c9glise sous l'enseignement du Christ \u2014 a lieu au moment du d\u00e9but de la deuxi\u00e8me session du Synode sur la synodalit\u00e9.<\/p>\n
