Theophany refers to a visible manifestation of God to humans. This concept is significant in various religious traditions, particularly in Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Theophanies often involve extraordinary events or phenomena, such as visions, dreams, or natural occurrences, through which divine presence is revealed. In Christianity, one of the most notable theophanies is the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River, where the voice of God is heard, and the Holy Spirit descends like a dove. Theophanies serve to affirm the divine nature of God and provide guidance or revelation to individuals or communities.
