At the Exposition of Turin, in our parish is exposed Altar of the Crucifixion, a replica of the Shroud.
dall'Ostensione After 10 years of the Jubilee, the Shroud was exposed again in Turin Cathedral from April 10 to May 23. For the first time you can see the Holy Shroud after the operation for the conservation which was submitted in 2002. But what is the Shroud? The Shroud is a linen cloth long 441 cm wide and 113 cm which is visible on the image of a man who door signs of torture and ill-treatment that culminated with the crucifixion. The tradition identifies the man Jesus and the sheet with the one used to wrap the body in the tomb. We talk about tradition, not proof. What is certain is that the Shroud of Turin is a striking image that helps us to read the Passion of Christ. The Gospels speak of the Shroud? The Gospel of John records the discovery of the empty tomb and the linen cloths lying flat as someone who stood up and left them there, and perhaps a shroud used for the head of Luke Jesus says that Peter, called by women , found in the tomb just the bandages. Matthew relates how Joseph of Arimathea did you deliver, by Pilate, Jesus' body in a shroud el'avvolse clean. Mark tells us that Pilate granted the corpse to Joseph who bought a linen cloth you wrap Jesus did
