翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Prayer Tower ： ウィキペディア英語版 Prayer Tower The Prayer Tower is a late Googie design-influenced tower located on the campus of Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma.〔(spaceagecity.com/basement ) retrieved 8 October 2007〕 The 200 ft (60.9 m) glass and steel structure, designed by Tulsa architect Frank Wallace, opened in 1967.〔Heather Caliendo, ("These walls: Oral Roberts University's Prayer Tower" ). ''The Journal Record'', February 8, 2008.〕 An enclosed observation deck gives a 360° view of the surrounding area and enables a self-guided visual tour of the ORU campus. The landscaped Ralph L. Reece Memorial Gardens surround the tower base. The tower is a popular local tourist attraction. ==Symbolism== ORU is a charismatic Christian university. According to school publicity the tower's form is laden with Christian symbolism.〔ORU website, (Prayer Room ), retrieved 10 January 2010〕 The Prayer Tower is located at the center of campus to symbolize prayer's central role in the goals of the university.〔David Edwin Harrell, ''Oral Roberts: An American Life'' (Indiana University Press, 1985), ISBN 978-0-253-15844-4, p.224. (Excerpt available ) at Google Books.〕 The disc and spindle design takes on the look of a cross from any horizontal bearing, and from the air resembles the Star of David. The tower's "upward spiral" is intended to mirror one's relationship with God. The latticework which surrounds the observation deck is reportedly built in part from standard white PVC pipe (with the original specification markings still somewhat visible)〔roadsideamerica.com ''(Oral Roberts Prayer Tower )'', retrieved 8 October 2007〕 and is meant as a semi-literal representation of the crown of thorns worn by Jesus on the cross, with red coloring for the blood Christ shed in death. The tower's peak features an eternal flame representing Baptism of the Holy Spirit. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Prayer Tower」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
