Controvery has long marked the accounts of the Gospels. Now recently, the tomb believed to have housed the body of Jesus Christ for three days has been opened for the first time in more than 450 years.
Controvery sparked by the amazing discovery. There has been a lot of debate about whether the Church of the Holy Sepulchre really was the site where Jesus was said to have been buried and resurrected.
Christians are delighted by the find. Either way, it holds deep religious significance in Christianity.

Hair raising discovery. Beneath the lid, researchers found the limestone shelf where it is believed that Christ’s body was laid down.
