Josh Gates Encountered Something TERRIFYING At The Location Jesus Was Crucified
The church is, in a word, breathtaking. The very air that hangs inside seems infused with something holy, but this is also a place of mystery. As sacred as this structure is, nothing that you see here today existed in the time of Jesus. From standing at the very site where Jesus Christ was crucified to uncovering a hidden Knights Templar burial ground complete with relics of mysterious significance, this journey is nothing short of spine-tingling. So without further ado, let’s dive in and unravel the terrifying discoveries at one of history’s most sacred locations: the mystery of Crucifixion Hill.
Today, the top of Crucifixion Hill lies beneath the floor of a church, where visitors can even place their hands on the stone. After setting off on an expedition to the site where Jesus was crucified, Josh Gates came across something terrifying. What could it be? Could this discovery shed new light on ancient Christian mysteries? Did they find Jesus’s tomb? Join us as we unravel the spine-tingling truth behind Gates’s startling find and venture into the heart of Jerusalem’s history.
This is what we found below the plaster—three crosses. This is our oldest source for the complete Ten Commandments. This is the earliest copy that we have. Wow! And is the text complimentary with later versions, or are there any changes? There’s a slight difference. It can take a year to go through one sheet.
Josh’s mission starts in Jerusalem, where he aims to uncover the truth behind this holy city by retracing the steps of Jesus Christ. His journey begins at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, revered as the holiest Christian shrine worldwide. It’s believed to mark the exact spot where Jesus was crucified and laid to rest. This church stands as a magnificent testament to faith, captivating visitors with its awe-inspiring beauty. Inside, the atmosphere is charged with a sense of sacredness. But here’s the thing—none of the current structures in the church existed during Jesus’s time. What’s the mystery behind this revered religious site?
According to biblical accounts, Jesus was crucified on Golgotha, a desolate hill. His body was placed on a stone before being laid in a tomb carved out of rock. Centuries later, Emperor Constantine sent his mother, Helena, to the Holy Land to pinpoint the exact location. She identified this spot, leading to the construction of a church here. Over time, the church was destroyed and rebuilt as Jerusalem passed between Christian, Muslim, and Jewish control.
A holy mystery persists today: the summit of the hill where Jesus was crucified lies beneath the church’s floor. Visitors can touch the stone where Jesus’s body was laid. Just a short distance away, within the vast structure, stands the tomb itself—the place where tradition holds Jesus was buried for three days before his resurrection. With so much destruction and renovation here, the question has always persisted—was this church built in the right spot?
A recent excavation might just answer that question once and for all.
Amid the extensive history of destruction and rebuilding, one question lingers: was the church erected in the correct location? A recent excavation at the site aims to answer this age-old inquiry.
