Photo Album of our Tour
to the Holyland
January 4-14, 1999
Photo 38
The immediate entrance to Jesus' tomb in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
This point is immediately below the great dome of the Church. Inside the
tomb were lighted candles. It was a very moving experience which I captured
on Video and will present later using frame-grabbed scenes. This is a very
holy site. We were lucky to have been able to visit this tomb. When we
exited, there were already dozens in line waiting.
Long before I ever considered going to Israel, I composed "The Tomb" which
is my interpretation of what Mary must have felt and thought the next morning
when the great stone had been rolled away and Jesus answered Mary. If you
have an audio component, this just click on your browser and listen to
this piece, composed on my Roland KR-1070. I am linking you to a site I
prepared for my high school teacher, Elaine Ledbetter who is also a poet,
and there you will be able to read her poem as you listen to The Tomb.
