  Holy Land Candles - Jesus and The Holyland

Jesus had lived all his life in the biblical land of Israel - His parents lived in Nazareth - The Angel Gabriel appeared to Maria and told her that she will conceive a child to the Holy Spirit and deliver the son of God. He was born in a Beth-Lehem cave, known today as the church of the nativity.

Jesus was raised and lived in Nazareth. He used to preach to the locals about morality and the commitment to follow the ways of God. He lived all his life in the Holy Land of Israel where he preformed many miraculous deeds - He walked on the water of the Sea of Galilee, healed hopelessly ill patients, turned water to wine, fed thousands of people with only seven loaves of bread and some fish.

By tradition, the Last Supper took place on Mount Zion. That was one of the major events relating to the life of Jesus and a fundamental event in Christianity, the inspiration to Christian ceremonies and theological ideas. The event is known as the "The last supper" as it was the last time where Jesus dined with his Apostles before he was handed over to the Romans who crucified him.

The Via Dolorosa (Latin for "Way of Grief" or "Way of Suffering"), a street in the Old City of Jerusalem, was the path that Jesus walked on the way to his crucifixion. The path is marked by nine of the fourteen Stations of the Cross. The last five stations are inside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

The Church of the Holy Sepulchre (called the Church of the Resurrection by Eastern Christians) is considered by most Christians as Golgotha, the Hill of Calvary, where the New Testament tells us that Jesus was crucified. It is also said to contain the place where Jesus was buried (the sepulchre). The church has been an important destination for pilgrims since the 4th century and today serves as the headquarters of the Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem and the Catholic Archpriest of the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre.
