Very nice, thank you very much! If you want to see something of the archaeological remains of the Herodian quarries at Golgotha away from the hustle and bustle of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, it's worth going to the Church of the Redeemer right next to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. There you will find archaeological excavations of these quarries underground without having to queue.
Been there, done that. The Holy Sepulcher is majestic, though as you write "a bit chaotic". Many tongues but somehow indicative of the unity of believers. Not like Pentecost, when all could understand one another speaking but the smiles and tears of joy and sorrow are the same.
Question ? The Medical understanding and tools to understand human physiology and heal it 2,000 YEARS ago could not match todays computer driven medical devices.
The energy that created the image of crucified god-man being, onto a linen burial cloth, was probably the spark of Light that not only re-animated, but healed.
I’m reminded of The Lord of the Rings, Celeborn’s statement to Boromir:
“Pay heed to the tales of old wives. It may well be that they alone keep in memory what it was once needful for the wise to know.”

The Church is truly beautiful, if not a bit chaotic.
It's in a random little square, tucked away. Inside, if you are lucky, you can hear multiple liturgies in various tongues being sung.
If ever you have a chance to visit, you should.

This is a great example of the intersection between oral tradition, written history, and archeological evidence.
It was worth the wait to see in person during my trip to Jerusalem in 2012. Highly recommended.

Pretty cool technology, if your in the know.
We need this Now more than ever! Thank you!
So fascinating that Helena may be responsible for finding the tomb. Thank you for writing and sharing!
