Jerusalem: Church of the Holy Sepulchre-Angel
Jerusalem. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The Chapel of the Angel, itself white as an angel, contains part of the rolling stone that was used to cover the opening of the tomb. Here sat a snow-white angel and, revealing himself to Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Salome, told them of Jesus’ resurrection: “He is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him” (Mark 16:6).
