9/17/2023 0 Comments Cloth of jesus![]() ![]() The blood from the Shroud, the Sudarium, and the Eucharist all come from a tortured man. In addition, the blood shows high levels of creatinine and ferritin, evidence of severe, multiple traumas. In every case, it is from a male with AB blood type, which is considered rare. The blood on the Shroud is identical to the blood found on the Sudarium, as well as in all the Eucharistic miracles that have been tested by science.Forensic scientists agree that there’s no question they covered the same body. There are twenty points of correlation between the Sudarium and the Shroud, including 124 exact matches to wounds, the same blood type, and the same shapes of stains. The Sudarium of Orviedo, which can be traced definitively to at least the fifth century, is said to be the head covering of Jesus, mentioned in John 20:7.But the DNA in the largest quantity is the Druze ethnicity, very rare in Europe but very common throughout the areas of Jerusalem, Palestine, and Jordan. DNA has been identified on the Shroud from people touching it, including ethnic families found in Europe, Turkey, India, and the Near East.Fragments of limestone unique to Jerusalem were on the cloth near the image’s nose, knee, and heel.Most significantly, the largest quantity of pollen present is from three plants that only exist together in the area around Jerusalem. The Shroud hasn’t traveled out of Europe since the 1300s, and yet half of the pollen found on the Shroud is from the Near East (Palestine, Israel, Jordan, Syria).Using 3D technology, scientists created a detailed 3D statue of the man it wrapped. The image has 3D information encoded in it.An instantaneous burst of light radiation emanated from the man and created a negative on the cloth. Thus the image is, in fact, a negative image of the man it wrapped. The image itself is barely visible, but when first photographed in 1898, the negative showed a very detailed image of a crucified man, with wounds corresponding to those of Christ.This phenomenon could only be caused by a rearrangement of electron bonding in the outer layer of the fibers, caused by a very brief but high-energy burst of radiation without the corresponding heat that would have disintegrated the fabric.The discoloration that forms the image appears only on the very top one or two fibers of thread, not even the whole thread (as thread is made of many tiny fibers twisted together), and only penetrates 0.2 microns into the 15-20 micron-diameter fibers-yet it discolors 360 degrees around those fibers.There’s simply no method known to medieval man or even to modern man to create an image with the amazing properties the Shroud has. No pigment, no chemicals, no brush strokes, no clumping of fibers or threads, no cracking of the image along fold lines are present, so the image is not created by any paint, stain, dye, or chemical treatment.This dating seemed to end the question of authenticity, but the accuracy of the testing has come into question for numerous scientific reasons, and today many scientists consider it flawed.įurther undermining the accuracy of the C 14 dating is the overwhelming body of evidence strongly pointing to the Shroud’s authenticity. Let’s acknowledge right from the beginning “the elephant in the room”-the 1988 Carbon 14 test that dated the Shroud to around 1300 AD. And the overwhelming majority of the evidence falls in favor of it being the authentic burial cloth of a crucified man who happened to experience the same tortures Jesus endured, as described in the Gospels. While many people claim it is a forgery, none of these skeptics seems to be able to explain how it was done. Hundreds of thousands of hours have been spent on scientific examination of the Shroud of Turin in an attempt to explain its enigmatic markings. I hope you’ll read what I’ve discovered prayerfully and meditatively, and allow yourself, too, to be deeply moved. I must tell you, my research affected me profoundly, and I don’t think I’ll be able to look at a crucifix casually ever again. Having recently finished an article on the Eucharistic Miracles proven by science, I was curious to learn more about the scientific evidence regarding the Shroud of Turin, believed since ancient times to be the actual linens used in Jesus’ burial (John 19:39-40). ![]()
