Holy Saturday - Sábado Santo

This day commemorates the time of darkness and waiting when Jesus was in the tomb. It is also a day for final preparations before Easter. 

While touring the Old City of Jerusalem, we visited  the Chapel of Flagellation, the Chapel of Condemnation, and the Lithostrotos, the site of the Antonia Fortress where Julius Caesar resided at the time of Christ and where Jesus was condemned to death.

We meditated on the Sacred Scriptures - Luke 24:1-12 -and went to Jesus's burial place... Same place of His Glorious Resurrection.

This place is home to two of the holiest sites in Christianity – the site where Jesus was crucified, known as Calvary, and the tomb where Jesus was buried and then resurrected. -

SÁBADO SANTO

Este día conmemora el tiempo de oscuridad y espera cuando Jesús estuvo en el sepulcro. También es un día de preparativos finales antes de la Pascua.

La imagen nos muestra el lugar donde Jesús fue sepultado... Mismo lugar de su gloriosa Resurrección. Solemne lugar de recogimiento y oración.
