"Holy Week already happened. The events
of Holy Week - the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus - transpired
thousands of years ago on a distant continent. There is little left of
the first Holy Week. The city of Jerusalem has been burnt and rebuilt
several times. Churches have been erected over the notable locations,
and the eyewitnesses are long dead and buried. While there are holy
sites and holy relics that signify what happened, nothing signifies this
better than the marks on the body of the Lord. These marks, while not
here on earth, are on Christ’s body in heaven."
