To those who don't believe, no explanation is possible. Those those who do believe, no explanation is necessary.

It is asserted that the Shroud of Turin is the burial shroud of Jesus Christ after His interment in the new tomb owned by Joseph of Arimathea.

It is asserted that the Shroud of Manoppello depicts the Face of Jesus Christ at the moment of His resurrection.

There are so many fascinating details concerning the Shroud. One of the most interesting to me, is that the image on the Shroud had no flattening of the backside. IOW, the body was not touching the bottom side of the Shroud when the image was created.

IIRC, Jewish burial practices of the time of Jesus, there would have been a face covering cloth in addition to a full body shroud.........................

I had thought that I had heard of everything pertaining to the shroud of Turin. This is the very first time I’ve heard of the Veil of Manoppello. You’ve given me something new to research. Thanks!

Believe the testimony of eyewitnesses to Jesus' life, death and resurrection. That testimony is called the New Testament.

The tomb is empty.

He is risen!

He's coming back!

All just throwbacks to the time when towns would get rich if they had a “relic”. Thousands of them were manufactured some very cleverly because they brought in big bucks in the Christ industry.

Love the Shroud! I feel like it is a gift especially to our times, when the photographic qualities became known. I also love the effect of combining these two images - stunning!

Fortunately my faith does not believe on any shroud

My problem since day 1 of this debate (shroud):

An image of a face on a piece of cloth draped over a body would NEVER appear as though it was drawn 2 dimensionally.

Period.
