Turin's linen (II)
Josip Marcelić
Sažetak
In the second part, the author responds on the fundamental questions:
whose picture is on the Turin's Linen? In that sense, he points out numerous
and detailed similarities between Gospel's reports and Picture on Turin's
Linen (for example whiping, crowning with thorny crown, carring of the cross,
falls on the Way of the Cross, crucifying with nails, flank pierced by spear, the
dead body wraped in linen). Starting from these similarities some scientists,
on the basis of probability, worked out that there is a great probability,
according to some almost certeinty, that the Turin's Linen is that Linen the
Gospels talk about and in which the dead Christ's body was wraped. If the
Turin's Linen is funeral Christ's linen, there are farther questions how it was
preserved through the history and was transmited to us. The author brings
out some facts that direct to that Turin's Linen is identical with Linen that
was kept and honored in Constantinople (X-XII c.) and in Edessa (VI-X c). In
Edessa it was probably brought from Jerusalem as late as the lst century. A
question is also asked how the Picture originated on Turin's Linen. The author
brings out opinions of the modern investigators of the Picture from Turin's
Linen and they conclude that the picture is not forgery, that did not originate
neither physical nor chemical effect of the dead body on Linen.
It is the best explained with method of the thermal influence on Linen (by
parching). However, to the scientists are not possible to influence on linen to
gain similar picture nor with the most modern technical devices (mild shades
of the colour gives three-demensional picture but the traces of the picture do
not change to the other side of the linen). The science, therefore, can not
explain the origin of the Picture on Turin's Linen!
At the end the author asks questions, isn't that thermal energy, so
nuanced and short-lived in intesity that it could create such Picture, could
originate on the occasion of the resurrection of the Christ's body, about what
teli us Gospels? That, really, is not answer of the scientist but meditation of
the believer. In that case the Turin's Linen would be the sign for the man of
XXth century, for the man of modern scientific investigations; the sign which
directs in supernatural processes.
