The Holy Veil of Manoppello: The Human Face of God

Just one look—one glimpse—at the compelling Holy Face of Jesus imprinted on the Image of the Veil of Manoppello is enough to bring a pervading Peace flooding into the ever-yearning human soul.

Best-selling journalist, author, historian Paul Badde, who lives in Rome and works for EWTN, wrote the book ‘The Face of God’: ‘The Rediscovery of the True Face of Jesus’ in 2010. He has returned to the subject in 2018 with more information in ‘The Human Face of God:’the Holy Veil of Manoppello’ whose many pictures once seen are impossible to forget.

Quite a difference in his beard between the Shroud of Turin and this one.

The veil of Manoppello has been pretty conclusively been shown to be a painting, a self-portrait, done by Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, known as Raphael, painted on Byssus, the most expensive cloth in the world.

Byssus is a fiber harvested from a sea urchin from which a very diaphanous cloth may be woven and which during the First Century was, by Law, reserved for Royalty. It is highly unlikely that anyone on the Via de la Rosa, least of all someone whose name is derived from the words that translate from the Latin words "vera ikon" meaning "true image," would have been royalty in possession of a Byssus veil to press to Jesus’ face. It is much more likely that a fairly wealthy woman would have pressed her fine Linen veil to Jesus’ face, a Linen cloth that much more matches the Mandyllion Veil kept at the Vatican which the Legend of the Manoppello veil claims was stolen and replaced and the original is now the Manoppello veil.

However, there are extant letters between Raphael and fellow artist Albrecht Dürer in which both discussed experimented with creating double-sided self-portraits on Byssus and sending examples to each other. The image on the Manoppello veil is the spitting image of Raphael at the age these letters were being sent. . .

Did you think a man’s beard never changes? Well, mine doesn’t much, except for graying.

But the time difference between the image on the Shroud of Truin, supposedly his death mask, and the Veil of Manoppello, which I understand to be his face at his resurrection, was only a few days.

Not in the day or two between carrying the cross to Golgotha and being covered by the Shroud in the tomb. That’s the claimed time span between the supposed creation of the image on the Veil of Manoppello and the creation of the image on the Shroud.

You understand wrongly about when the "Veronica" Veil legend was supposedly created. It was on the Via de la Rosa, when Jesus stumbled and fell, a woman named "Veronica" came out of the crowd and wiped the sweat and blood from his face. When she look at her veil later, it miraculously found it had the true image of Jesus’ face on it. It was not after the resurrection, but a few minutes to an hour before the crucifiction.

The problem I see between the Shroud of Turin, the Veil of Veronica, and the Veil of Manoppello is the difference between the beards because they are all supposed to be captured in a short time span. Aren’t the Veil of Veronica and the Veil of Manoppello the same?

Ray Dowling and his team's computer image of the face of Christ, based on years of research and using the Shroud of Turin as the baseline.

Jesus was beaten to within an inch of His life and Scripture alludes to His bread being plucked out, or ripped out as the case may be.

Isaiah 50:6 I gave my back to those who strike, and my cheeks to those who pull out the beard; I hid not my face from disgrace and spitting.

Isaiah 52:14 As many were astonished at you— his appearance was so marred, beyond human semblance, and his form beyond that of the children of mankind—

I highly doubt someone who was just crucified would look so good.

For some folks, the Spirit will use this — the image of the Christ who suffered and died on the Cross — to speak faith to their souls. And yet, “Blessed are they who have believed and yet have not seen.” God understands what kind of witness we need.

For that reason — it might not be an exact image, merely an artistic representation (even if supernaturally produced).

He was beaten to within an inch of His SUPERNATURALLY STRENGTHENED life. Now that is a heroic ordeal. Which He suffered for our sakes.
