In funeral terminology, an icon refers to which of the following?

• A. A religious statue
• B. A Greek Orthodox religious picture
• C. A piece of jewelry
• D. A decorative symbol

Answer: (B)

In funeral terminology, the term icon refers to a sacred image used in Eastern Orthodox worship. Icons are religious pictures of Christ, the Virgin Mary, or saints that are venerated in Greek Orthodox practice and often used in funeral rites or placed with the deceased. This distinguishes them from a statue, jewelry, or a generic decorative symbol, which do not carry the same specific religious function or ritual significance.
