Jesus Christ

Jesus is a passive figure in this event, existing solely as the object of Jud’s prayer and the target of Blanc’s critique. His 'emotional state' is reflective of Jud’s belief system—Jud sees him as a source of salvation and guidance, while Blanc views him as a figment of a flawed narrative. The tension arises from the contrast between these perspectives, with Jesus serving as a mirror for Jud’s internal conflict.

Not applicable (invoked figure). The invocation of Jesus reflects Jud's internal state: a mix of desperation, hope, and existential dread. The empty space where the cross should be underscores the absence of divine reassurance, amplifying Jud's vulnerability.

Jud’s invocation of Jesus is one of desperation and longing, but Jesus himself remains an enigmatic, distant figure.

Not applicable (symbolic figure). The image serves as a silent witness to the hypocrisy and betrayal unfolding in the rectory.
