Based on comments from the other article on FR regarding the shroud I was doing some various research. One article said that somebody had a piece of foreskin claiming it to be from Jesus!
I guess Mary and Joseph knew the importance of Jesus even before He was born, but not sure they would have figured to save His foreskin. (Hmm - I wonder if His baby teeth are around?)
I don’t have the time, but I’m guessing there are certain and specific procedures for Jewish disposal of the foreskin by the Rabbi. I know that they are very particular of the cleaning and disposal of all human tissue and blood after a bombing or accident. But it probably doesn’t include asking the mom or dad “Hey - you want to keep this?”
Anyway - I thought it was interesting your comment and me reading about this other “relic”.
BTW - I believe the shroud is from Jesus. I find it to be an interesting exhibit and evidence to me that science and the spiritual world coexist.
I got bashed for it, but the Holy Foreskin was actually a thing during the middle ages.
I think the shroud is most likely a middle ages creation. Too many historic gaps for it to be reliable.
