TRANSCRIPT
Obviamente en Jerusalén abundan las iglesias.
Presentamos imágenes de las diversas iglesias. Pertenecen a diversas confesiones cristianas, pero apenas lo mencionaremos. Es un viaje visual y su
objetivo, verlas por sí mismo.
Iglesia VICTORIA AUGUSTA, en el Monte de los Olivos cuya torre se ve desde todas las esquinas de Jerusalén.
En la cima del monte Sión se encuentra la iglesia de la Dormición. Está dedicada a la Asunción de María.
Bajamos al bello sótano. Encontramos allí la escultura de la Dormición de María y, encima, un techo con pinturas de mujeres bíblicas famosas.
The descent to the room where Jesus was imprisoned
The lower story chapel
La capilla principal. Véase la adoración en el techo.
Iglesia de Santa Ana, la esposa de San Joaquín, madre de María. Según la tradición, aquí nació la Virgen María.
Jesus resting on the rock after The Last Supper
En el interior, la roca donde Jesús pasó las últimas horas antes de ser prendido.
We finish with the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. This is the holiest site to Christianity, even holier then St Peter’s basilica in the Vatican. This enormous
church is built on Jesus' crucifixion site – Golgotha, and inside is the cave were Jesus was buried in, resurrected and ascended. The place was first identified by Helena – mother of Constantine, the emperor who declared
Christianity as the official country’s religion in 324 A.C. In 326 A.C. Helena arrived to Jerusalem to locate the place. In the site there was a Roman/pagan shrine, apparently to blur the memory of Jesus, but post factum it seems to
have brought certainty to the identification of the site. The shrine was destroyed and instead Constantine and Helena established the first Church of the Holy Sepulcher, inaugurated in 333 A.C. The church was destroyed and renovated several times due to the different conquests, and the structure we know today was built in 1099 with the crusaders conquest and standing still
though repeatedly renovated.
Unlike most churches in the Christian world, that belong each to its certain order, this church is joint managed by 7 different orders, the three dominant
ones being: the Greek orthodox, the Armenians and the Franciscans. On a lower rank are the Copts, the Syrians, the Ya’acobits and the Ethiopians
(located on the church’s roof). (And the keys for the church, believe it or not, are in the hands of a Muslim family!!!)
