===Origin/meaning===
===Origin/meaning===
The arms of a (non related) Beltran family of northern Spain feature a black eagle on a green field, together with five silver stars. In the version of these arms for Bishop Beltran's use, the eagle is shown grasping in its talons the segments of a broken chain - revering to Isaiah 61: "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me … He has sent me to bring glad tidings to the lowly, to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to the prisoners." These lines, read in the Mass of Ordinations, say much about a pastor's role in the face of many kinds of captivity, not the least of which is that of persons involved in the struggle for their rights as citizens. In this sense, the motif of the broken chain alludes to Archbishop Beltran's dedication of his episcopate to the principle of social justice.

For his episcopal motto he has selected the phrase “WE ARE ONE IN CHRIST”. Archbishop Beltran's motto states his conviction that the differences among persons are as nothing compared to their unity in the grace of Jesus Christ.
