The tree of the Two Advents Joachim of Fiore, Liber figurarum, 1202 This remarkable figure presents the main characters and institutions of the Christian salvation history.

The figure of Christ dominates the center of the genealogical tree (representing the first coming, or Redemption), as well as the very top (the place of the second coming, or Resurrection).
