The logo and the motto together provide a fitting summary of what the Jubilee Year is all about. The motto Merciful Like the Father ( Luke, 6:36) serves as an invitation to follow the merciful example of the Father who asks us not to judge or condemn but to forgive and to give love and forgiveness without measure. The logo – the work of Jesuit Father Marko I. Rupnik represents an image of the Son taking upon his shoulders the lost soul. One particular feature worthy of note is that while the Good Shepherd, in his great mercy, takes humanity upon himself, his eyes are merged with those of man. Christ sees with the eyes of Adam, and Adam with the eyes of Christ. The scene is captured within the so called mandorla (the shape of an almond), a figure quite important in early and medieval iconography, for it calls to mind the two natures of Christ, divine and human. The three concentric ovals, with colors progressively lighter as we move outward, suggest the movement of Christ who carries humanity out of the night of sin and death. Conversely, the depth of the darker color suggests the impenetrability of the love of the Father who forgives all.

El logotipo y el lema en conjunto proporcionan un resumen apropiado de lo que el Año Jubilar se trata. El lema Misericordioso Como el Padre (Lucas, 06:36) sirve como una invitación a seguir el ejemplo misericordioso del Padre que nos pide no juzgar o condenar, sino perdonar y dar amor y el perdón sin medida . El logo - el trabajo del padre jesuita Marko Rupnik representa una imagen muy importante para la Iglesia primitiva: la del Hijo que toma sobre sus hombros el alma perdida. Una característica particular es que el Buen Pastor, en su gran misericordia, toma la humanidad sobre sí mismo, sus ojos se combinan con los del hombre. Cristo ve con los ojos de Adán, y Adán con los ojos de Cristo. La escena es capturada dentro de la mandorla (la forma de una almendra), una cifra bastante importante en la iconografía temprana y medieval, ya que trae a la mente las dos naturalezas de Cristo, divino y humano. Los tres óvalos concéntricos, con colores progresivamente más claros a medida que avanzamos hacia el exterior, sugieren el movimiento de Cristo que lleva la humanidad de la noche del pecado y de la muerte. Por el contrario, la profundidad del color más oscuro sugiere la impenetrabilidad del amor del Padre que perdona.
