@dailymail: Archaeologists excavating beneath Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre have uncovered new evidence about the ancient landscape surrounding the site traditionally identified as Jesus’ tomb. The remains reveal an old quarry containing rock-cut tombs alongside cultivated areas where vines and olive trees once grew - features that echo the Gospel of John’s description of a garden near Jesus’ burial place. The findings offer fresh insight into what the area may have looked like around the time of Jesus, but researchers have not found evidence proving who was buried in the tomb. The discovery adds another chapter to the long-running debate over whether the Church of the Holy Sepulchre is the location of Jesus’ burial and resurrection. #jesus #bible #news #jerusalem
