Was the Shroud of Turin really used to wrap the body of Jesus ?

[UM-Bot]

A virtual simulation has been used in an effort to determine if the famous biblical relic really shows the image of Jesus.

No.

A fascinating subject. There are two accounts, the Shroud and the Bible.

The Shroud is what it is, but the Bible says...

Quote

 

John 20:6,7.

6Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, 7And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself. 

 

 

These texts Bend over backwards to indicate the body linens and the head napkin were two distinct objects.

Could be that the body linen covered the head AND a separate napkin for the head was over top of the head too but that text shouts to the contrary.

🤷‍♂️

I’d LOVE to say “yes”.

This again.

It's pretty much agreed Leonardo Da Vinci created the Turin Shroud.

Why rehash this: 'it's Jesus Christ' BS!? zzzzzz🥱
 

[Alex_Rogan]

Does it really matter?

Can it be compared to political yard signs?

It won't affect or change anything either way.

If Jesus really existed, then he looked like a guy from the Middle East and not like this European with long hair. He was always portrayed like that in the Middle Ages, which is why they designed the shroud that way. Of course, it's a fake.

It looks exactly like a half starved Frankish knight with forearm development from someone who wielded a sword and thigh development from steering horses with them.

No. It was carbon dated to the Crusader period and if genuine it’s the burial shroud of a knight. Most likely a Templar because they wore their hair long.

I lean towards Templar too.

I didn't even google it, but I read long ago that they had taken samples from the repair patches instead of from the original cloth. Those patches were added to repair the corners of the folded cloth after a fire in the middle ages had almost destroyed the thing.

Well, I think that was most probably the story propagated by those who believed the shroud was really 2,000 years old.

I remember that. It was on BBC.

Yup, and it was a lie too.

You gotta respect the Shroud as the long-time title holder as the Whitest Jesus in Western Art, until finally beaten by the Mormons in the 19th Century (photo credit, our very own @acute)

Jesus was a Jew who looked like this...

He took the probe for your sins. So that no one shall be probed again.

No. The image on the shroud does not match descriptions of Roman-era crucifixions.

What he discovered was correct - the stains don't match what would happen to an average human but he was vibrating at a different frequency. Dr. Piczek, a physicist and sculpture artist discovered that the body would have had to be hovering above ground in the cloth in order to create the pattern on the fabric. With her background in physics, she described the impression in terms of a quantum hologram. Dr. Piczek is interviewed in this documentary: The Fabric of Time: Are the Secrets of the Universe Hidden in an Ancient Cloth?
