The life and death of Jesus Christ for more than two thousand years has been an immutable truth for millions of believers around the world. However, new facts and finds are constantly appearing that try to refute the centuries-old history. For example, there is a tomb that claims to be the site of the final resting place of Jesus Christ.
Director James Cameron (yes, he directed "Titanic" and "Avatar") made a documentary about a tomb that could become a real burial place for Jesus and his family. Yes, the question of wife and children is constantly raised by historians and lovers of mysterious theories. Video service Netflix asked about the study of the discovered tomb, which claims to be the Holy Sepulcher. Yes, this place is located in Jerusalem, in the same place as Calvary, which became the site of the crucifixion of Christ.
The same place is located 5 kilometers from the Holy Sepulcher and is called the Talpiot tomb. It was discovered in 1980 and was filled with interesting things. It contained chests with religious inscriptions "Yeshua, son of Joseph", "Mary" and "son of Jesus Judas." The excavation was carried out by a scientist from Israel Arie Shimron, who conducted more than 150 different studies. It was possible to establish that around 345 the tomb was flooded, and the water and mud destroyed most of the contents of the ossuary.
The find and all its contents were bought by collector James Shimorn in 1980, so research was suspended. There is still a heated debate between the possibility of the existence of the family of Jesus Christ. After all, the presence of his remains contradicts the main Christian dogmas that he ascended to heaven. The possible presence of a family and descendants also contradicts his biography.
Director James Cameron produced the documentary The Lost Tomb of Jesus, in which he considered the possibility of burying the son of God in the tomb of Talpiot. By the way, one day he was asked what if he could move into the past, who would he meet. He replied that with Jesus Christ, to ask how he managed to instill this idea in so many millions of people.
Do you think it is possible that Jesus Christ was buried elsewhere?
