12:20 pm
he is examined by special church ministers, that he has nothing with which he can do anything, an armenian bishop comes in with him, if i’m not mistaken, or an archimandrite. in the limit of the angel, the armenian remains in the limit of the angel, and the patriarch lies at the three-day bed of the savior, praying. the greek patriarch of jerusalem and the armenian archimandrite, holding 33 candles in his hands, according to the number of years of the savior’s earthly life, goes inside. there is silence in the temple, the believers freeze in anticipation. it is believed that the year when the holy fire will not descend.
12:21 pm
prayer and ritual continue until the miracle everyone expected will not happen. the chapel is divided into...
12:22 pm

12:23 pm
want to wish to the russian people. have faith in christ, be devoted to the orthodox church , and participate in church life in order to truly find happiness.
12:24 pm
jerusalem, the main temple of the christian world. here are two shrines and evidence of the resurrection of christ. golgotha and the holy sepulcher. over its long history, the temple was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt; it has existed in its current form since 1810. it was restored after a severe fire. at that time jerusalem was under turkish rule belonged to the ottoman empire. during the period of the ottoman empire, when officials often became involved in some kind of corruption schemes, there was such a concept as baksheesh. bagshish was translated as
12:25 pm
a bribe, a gift, an offering. and while offering this baksheesh, there are certain confessions, coptic, armenian, syrian. they could win back from the turkish sultan, to put it mildly, pieces of land, pieces of borders around the holy sepulcher and so on, this was the most... jerusalem since the 5th century. russian orthodox egyptian christians, these churches were located in the church is represented in the composition.
12:26 pm
competing faiths forgot about such fragile matter as air. the rivalry has moved into the sphere of sound, for example, during services, catholics play the organ, orthodox priests begin to sing louder so that they can be heard. as a result, the temple is filled with an unimaginable cocophony. in 1852 . the confessions divided every centimeter of the temple among themselves by signing an agreement. since then
12:27 pm
the status quo has been maintained. for more than 160 years, in the church of the holy sepulcher, everything has remained in its place in the literal sense of the word. and we see a certain atovism of the responses of that time in the franciscan staircase, which you can still see on the facade. a wooden staircase from the 19th century, this is how it was fixed, it remains in place. no one cleans up. today, in fact, only one part of the temple can be seen. the wall that faces the southern platform has been preserved since the times of the crusaders. there are two doors in it, but only the left one is open and serves as the only entrance to the temple. the first thing to do, immediately to the right of the entrance , is to climb golgotha, in the literal sense
12:28 pm
of the word: climb golgotha. this is different from us from christ it is much easier to do. just a few steps up, literally one flight of stairs in an old house with high ceilings. this is golgotha. many believe that the hole under the altar remains from the cross. there are huge queues here, everyone wants to touch their hand. in fact, the cross stood a meter further away. now there is a crucifix there, and the hole is under the altar. the only opportunity to touch. stones of golgotha, everything else is covered by temple buildings. then this rock
12:29 pm
was the place of execution of criminals. the top of golgotha is the holy crucifix. there was a cross here the savior, and on the sides are the crosses of two robbers sentenced along with him. many people gathered to watch the execution; for them it was a common event. the crowd laughed, some spat, only two were able to understand who was in front of them. the first one, one of the criminals named dismos. he was crucified at the right hand of jesus. a second before his death, dismos recognized christ and asked: “remember me, lord, when you come to your kingdom.” in response, jesus promised: “today you will be with me in paradise.” and the second robber, gestos, at that moment he grinned wryly: “if you are the son of god, save yourself and us.” there is an opinion that it is for this reason that the lower crossbar... on orthodox crosses is inclined, one points upward to dismos, who went to heaven, the other points down to
12:30 pm
gestos, who went to hell. and one more person at the place of execution believed in christ, the roman centurion langinus. the torment of christ so shocked his soul that after the death of jesus he exclaimed, this true man was of god, that is, he was the first to receive his sight in a spiritual sense. in the temple. somewhere here on golgotha, the person was nailed to the cross, which lay on the ground, then the cross was raised and installed in a previously prepared hole. people line up right at the place where the cross with the crucified jesus was raised, the place where he died. there is an altar there. everyone kneels for him. this is the only way to see
12:31 pm
the silver circle with a hole in the middle. you can put your hand into the hole; the depth there is a little less than half a meter. and touch golgotha itself. if you want your loved ones to be mentioned in prayer, you can write notes with names. in one note, it is advisable to write no more than ten names, in block letters in cyrillic, in the nominative case. under no circumstances write the words “sick anna” or “young paul”. the notes are read by greeks, they do not know russian, they perceive every word as a name.
12:32 pm
the people are trying to leave these notes in the area of adam, which is located directly under golgotha. on the icons and mosaic frescoes in the temple you can see the image of a skull under the cross of the crucified christ. many people believe that the skull is simply a symbol of death. actually it's not this way. this is an image of the skull of the first man, adam. noah takes adam's skull with him when he enters the ark. and he travels with this skull. the ark, when the journey ends on mount ororada, the settlement of people begins, it’s not that far, in principle, it reaches the place that today we call golgotha or the place of execution, like a skull, and it is buried there so that it can be clearly seen, and the people knew that their ancestor was buried here, the skull of his ancestor, thereby, as it were, emphasizing
12:33 pm
the point that this is where it should happen redemption of the first adam by the second adam. not far from the front door, right on the floor, there is a slab of pink marble, and there is always a crowd around. the body of jesus was placed on this stone after he was taken down from the cross. it was here that joseph of armathia and nicodemus prepared the body for burial and performed confirmation. in our tradition, a person is buried on the third day. but in jerusalem everything is different, they bury there day after day, in a rare testament of the pirinth it was precisely on the day of death that they were buried before sunset, so they were well preserved right away. today the stone smells fragrant, from it droplets of the world appear, oil that does not exist in nature, it is a mixture of forty components.
12:34 pm
there is no way it can appear on a stone slab in a natural way. there were many attempts to find out where this oil comes from on the stone, but... today there is a marble slab on it, it protects the real stone of anointing from pilgrims who tried to break off a piece and take it with them. there was even a term: holy vandalism. around the stone you can see women on their knees, wiping it with their scarves. with with the stone of anointing, the body of christ was transferred to a cave; it was located on the slope of a mountain, which was squeezed during the construction of the temple. the chapel of edicule now stands on this site, but in the church of the holy sepulcher you can still see today what the real burial caves of that time looked like. the tomb of jesus christ
12:35 pm
looked the same except for one fundamental difference. died in the family, they were developing another niche, here is a tomb that has been started, there are boxes on it, that is, it is new, that is , clearly, it is nothing was used, for some reason it was stopped once...
12:36 pm
nowadays , the uvuklia chapel rises above the place where jesus was buried. there is very old masonry here. pilgrims use these ties to light candles. as a result, the entire wall became smoky and covered with wax. the monks don't like this very much; they have to constantly extinguish the candles. wooden beams catch fire all the time, and someday this could develop into a big fire. the doors of the church of the holy sepulcher open at 4:30 a.m. and are locked at 7:30 p.m.; opening and closing hours change frequently.
12:37 pm
the best time to visit the church of the holy sepulcher is 8:00 in the morning or an hour and a half before closing. the wave of tourists subsides in the temple, as they say, there is something to breathe. you can calmly stand at every holy place. but always with a scarf on your head. you can stay in the temple overnight, but to do this you need to obtain special permission from representatives of three faiths: greek, catholic and armenian. temple of the sepulchre. often called the center of the world, everything is mixed here, nationalities, religions, churches. christian service easily
12:38 pm
may coincide with the call of the muezzin, just 70 m away stands the mosque of caliph omar. the mosque appeared here in the 7th century, when jerusalem was besieged by the troops of caliph amarat. in the end, the city was surrendered to him on the condition that he would not touch the church of the holy sepulchre. and when caliph omar entered the church of the resurrection of the lord, everyone froze, god forbid, he would throw a prayer rug inside the temple space. but khalifa amar kept his word, they were still afraid, he was the ruler of the muslim universe, which captured the entire middle east. khalifa amar leaves the temple the holy sepulcher throws his prayer rug.
12:39 pm
the queue to the sacred tomb stretches for several tens of meters, but moves quickly; you can walk through in about 20 minutes. the premises are so small that several
12:40 pm
people can barely fit in them. the deathbed of christ, which is located in the tomb, is covered with a marble slab, from particularly zealous pilgrims who literally crushed the stone into pieces in order to take with them at least a grain of sand. after the conquest of jerusalem, the turks preserved the temple, but took away a lot from here. slab over the coffin the lord liked one of the turkish governors. he decided to take it to decorate his own home. the patriarch of jerusalem could not say no, but as soon as the governor was a little distracted, he drew his fingers on the stone. the marble slab is cracked, but now you can see it in its place. two or three people at a time are allowed into the special chapel for literally seconds. the vigilant greek priests do not allow too much delay. during
12:41 pm
this time, you need to have time to get on your knees, touch the stove and turn to the savior. as you exit the tomb, there is a lamp with holy fire on the right. they burn throughout the year, until next easter. they say you have to light them again if you get into trouble. it is believed that the flame of such a candle drives away all misfortunes and burns away negativity. they can light it up. or an apartment, it is generally believed that in the year when the holy fire does not descend to people, the end of the world will come, once this almost happened, on that day the turkish governor forbade opening the doors of the temple, a huge crowd gathered at the entrance, people prayed with tears, preparing for inevitable death, but suddenly lightning struck one of the columns in front of the gate,
12:42 pm
the column split, and the blessed fire descended. well, about the split column, that’s not even a story. and the patriarch of jerusalem saphronius stood humbly at a certain column. and the blessed fire came down from this column, which we see physically split. the temple contains five places associated with the crucifixion, anointing and funeral of christ. they complete the path that jesus walked from the moment of condemnation to death, the path of tribulation. in latin via dolorosa. in jerusalem it is real address,
12:43 pm
a street with that name runs through the entire old town. via doloorosa begins here. it is believed that the roman fortress of antonia once stood on this site, where the procurator pontius pilate sentenced christ to execution. today it is an ordinary street. on one side there are monasteries and churches, on the other there are arab shops selling souvenirs. there is another version of the trial of jesus, which claims that it did not take place in the fortress of antonia. and in the palace of herod the great, as described in bulgakov’s novel, master margarita. in the fortress antonia cohort, for example, even alone, obviously did not last for a month, there was not enough space there, and pilate himself did not need to be accommodated in the antonia fortress. at his disposal was the large, very well fortified palace of herod the great. on via doloorosa there are 14 special places associated with the gospel texts. they
12:44 pm
are called stops or stations. anyone can walk this path; every friday an organized procession led by franciscan monks moves along it. once a week they repeat the way of the cross of christ. by traditionally, the procession is accompanied by muslim guards. during the time of turkish rule, they guarded believers and kept order. the guards walk with ritual scales in their hands. their whips, of course, they don’t hit anyone with them, it’s more of a symbol of authority, like a traffic controller’s baton. the second stop is naviyaroza, the arch where pilate brought jesus out to the high priests, said the man. the third stop is the place of the first fall of christ, another one, the place where the salvation not made by hands appeared.
12:45 pm
the apostles fled. relieve your suffering by wiping his face with a towel, on the towel remains the image of the suffering christ, the canvas of veronica, the so -called one of the first christian images of christ, prototypes of future icons. there are 14 so-called navia dolorosa stations in total. this is the so-called path of sorrow, yes vio doloza, that’s it.
12:46 pm
only two points coincide with the real path of the lord jesus christ, perhaps, that is , the first point is the garden of gethsemane, the last point is the church of the resurrection of christ itself, in which there are several stops, but priests and historians agree on one thing: the place executions and burials definitely took place here, in the church of the holy sepulchre. these are the end points of the path. services are constantly taking place in this small space.
12:48 pm
the doors of the temple and only then the gates to the square. it turns out that by the time people find themselves in the square, the temple is already open. wajihnu seibe is a local landmark. he already has a whole album of photographs with famous people. and

12:52 pm
talk about her actions, and not about herself, what they say about this, that jesus was born from a woman, that’s all, they don’t tell anything else, not even the name, this, of course, is important information, but not enough for a person , curious. the new testament is the essence of christ's teaching, not a biography. to say little about specific people is a generally accepted principle of the gospel. so as not to distract from the main thing, it is impossible to find out from the bible exactly what i was thinking about what did you dream of, after all, what did the mother of god look like or where did she live? here are women’s questions, what kind of dress was she wearing, of course, a single mother is wonderful, a traumatic life, hard, a test for nerves, for everything, but we will try to imagine her life, it will help us. better understand the essence of the feat of the mother of god.
