Michael Coley's Photo Gallery - Israel - Calvary
|
Calvary. Below the bush at the top of the hill, you can see what looks
like two eyes and below that a nose. |
Here you see one of the largest cisterns that we saw in Israel,
a sure sign that the tomb was in a rich man's garden. |

Here's the outside of the garden tomb. Part of the wall had fallen
away, so the front has been reconstructed. |
Inside the tomb is a weeping chamber and
three tombs (two unused). Very extravagent, even for rich man's sepulchre.
"Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre,
wherein was never man yet laid." - John 19:41 |

A sign placed inside the tomb. - Matthew 28:6, Mark 16:6, Luke 24:6 |
