Episode 1: A Burial Like No Other
A Burial Like No Other
Darkness falls. A crucified body is rushed to the tomb before sunset. Friends and followers gather linen, spices, and courage. But how exactly was Jesus buried, and what does that tell us about the cloth that would later ignite centuries of debate?
In the opening episode of The Shroud, host Lee Shelton begins the investigation at the very start: the burial. Drawing from Gospel accounts, first-century Jewish customs, and the testimony of early Christian writings, this episode explores what happened in those hurried hours after the crucifixion.
With insights from Dr. Craig Evans, Emanuela Marinelli, Andrea Nicolotti, Jerrell Jobe, and David Johnson, we ask hard questions:
- What do the Gospels really say about the burial cloths of Jesus?
- How did Jewish law and Roman rule shape the burial practices of the time?
- Could the Shroud of Turin fit the historical and cultural context of the first century?
This is where the story begins, with a body, a burial, and a cloth that still stirs fierce controversy two thousand years later.
