The Lord’s burial place opened for restoration and study

This is for your Just Too Cool file and for your November viewing calendar.

In the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, the Aedicule, or structure around the niche carved into the rock that served as Christ’s resting place in the tomb is being overhauled.  Part of the process was to remove marble slabs that for centuries have covered the actual rock shelf.  National Geographic was there to document the work.  There will be a show on it in November.

More from National Geographic, including a video HERE.
