31 October 2016, 13:30Exposing of the Lord's Sepulchre is not significant from religious point, Orthodox and Catholics believe
*** According to them, it is connected rather with history and archeology than with the Christian faith
Moscow, October 31, Interfax - Orthodox and Catholic religious leaders do not see anything special from religious viewpoint in exposing the supposed burial place of Christ.
"From religious point of view, I do not see anything important in it," first deputy chairman of the Russian Church Educational Committee, professor of the Moscow Theological Academy Archpriest Maxim Kozlov told Interfax-Religion.
According to him, the event belongs to the sphere of church archeology.
Press secretary of the Catholic Archdiocese of the Holy Virgin in Moscow priest Kirill Gorbunov sticks to the same opinion. He said that exposing the Sepulchre of Christ is rather the question of archeology and history as "the Christian faith focuses on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ."
As was reported, the first time in history scientists pulled the white marble covering from the stone burial bed of Christ in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem laid in 1555. The experts hope to learn how St. Helena, mother of emperor Constantine, came to know that this cave was the place of the Sepulchre of the Lord.
