BEARS IMAGE OF A NAKED MAN
© Stephen E. Jones[1]
This is, "Bears image of a naked man," part #15 of my online book, "The Shroud of Turin: The Burial Sheet of Jesus!" For more information see the Cover #1, Contents #2 and Preface #3, of this series.
[Contents #2] [Previous: Has been in Turin since 1578 #14] [Next: Man has wounds matching those of Jesus #16]
- What is the Shroud of Turin? #8
- Bears image of a naked man #15
[Right (enlarge)[7]: Full-length image of the Shroud after the 2002 restoration.]
As can be seen, this muscular[8], bearded[9], man on the Shroud is entirely naked[10].
Although his hands are crossed covering his genitals[11], the back image shows that he is completely naked[12].
Jesus was crucified naked, His clothes having been taken off Him and divided between His Roman soldier executioners (Mt 27:35; Mk 15:24; Lk 23:34; Jn 19:23-24)[13].
Continued in part #16 of this series.
