John Climacus, a Christian monk living on Mount Sinai, was known under different names. You might have heard of him as John of the Ladder, John Sinaites, or John Scholasticus. All the names refer to his life; however, there is almost no information about his biography. What we know is that the saint came to the monastery at the age of 16 and wrote several instructive books, with “The Ladder of Divine Ascent” being the most famous one. In the featured 13th-century Novgorod icon, you can see John Climacus surrounded by Saint George (on the left) and Saint Blaise (on the right).

Remember that footbridge I posted a while back with the water lapping round it. Well here it is completely under water. #floods #lake #lacdeneuchâtel #saintblaise #hauterive #outwalking #footbridge (at Saint-Blaise, Neuchatel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRuEadHB3aa/?utm_medium=tumblr

The level of the lake has risen dangerously. Any more rain and it’ll burst its banks. #saintblaise #lake #flooding #highwater #heavyrain #clouds #rain #storms #outwalking #lacdeneuchâtel #lacdeneuchatel (at Saint-Blaise, Neuchatel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRUegkRhwNP/?utm_medium=tumblr
