Now we know that the structure is well that we can celebrate in a joyful way, not only the greatest feast for us which is Easter, but the fact that we have been able to get all the churches to have dialogue to get a little closer from the unity that Jesus asked us to do in his last supper so that's something really special for us.\"10.

And for the first time in 200 years that marble plate was taken out so it was a great great occasion for us to be able to see this rock which was 2000 years old. We found that underneath there was also a marble plate from the Crusaders time that was still there, that we could see. They found for example there the scientific proofs that there's really a dead man that was laid on this rock.\"15. Wide shot of painting on wall showing people carrying Jesus' body 16.

So we want to make sure that the floor will also be solid that underground also the sewage system, the water system and everything that is underneath would be fixed to make sure that the old structure of the Holy Sepulchre will be restored.\"27.

The Tomb of Jesus, one of the holiest places in Christianity, has just undergone a restoration bringing the iconic site back to its former glory. STORYLINE Inside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. According to tradition, this is the place where Jesus was entombed and resurrected from the dead. A Greek restoration team recently completed an historic renovation of the Edicule, the shrine that tradition says houses the cave where Jesus was entombed.Gone is the unsightly iron cage built around the shrine by British authorities in 1947 to shore up the walls. The black soot on the shrine's stone facade from decades of pilgrims lighting candles has also been removed. And gone are fears about the stability of the old shrine, which hadn't been restored in more than 200 years.\"Now we know that the structure is well that we can celebrate in a joyful way not only the greatest feast for us which is Easter but the fact that we have been able to get all the churches to have dialogue to get a little closer from the unity that Jesus asked us to do in his last supper so that's something really special for us,\" says Father David Grenier, secretary for the Custody of the Holy Land.The limestone and marble structure stands at the centre of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, one of the world's oldest churches - a 12th-century building standing on 4th-century remains. The shrine needed urgent attention after years of exposure to environmental factors like water, humidity and candle smoke.Several Christian denominations jealously guard separate sections of the church and have all given their blessing for the restoration. In 2015, Israeli police briefly shut down the building after Israel's Antiquities Authority deemed it unsafe, and repairs began in June 2016.The restorers also made some discoveries.On Oct. 26 2016, the team entered the inner sanctum of the shrine, the burial chamber of Jesus, and temporarily slid open an old marble layer covering the bedrock where Jesus' body is said to have been placed.Below the outer marble layer was a white rose marble slab engraved with a cross, which the team dated to the late Crusader period of the 14th century. Beneath that marble slab was an even older, grey marble slab protecting the bedrock. Mortar on the slab dates to the 4th century, when Roman Emperor Constantine ordered the Church of the Holy Sepulchre built.The restorers have cut a small window from the shrine's marble walls for pilgrims to see - for the first time - the bare stone of the ancient burial cave.\"It was a great great occasion for us to be able to see this rock .. they found for example there the scientific proofs that there's really a dead man that was laid on this rock,\" says Father Grenier. Ruth Ann Rini and her husband Ron made the trip to Jerusalem from Eugene Oregon in the United States, and say they love the restored tomb.\"We love it, it is just a miraculous visit for us, it is once in a life time experience, we just have loved it. We've been in awe over it, and we are just so amazed that they have redone it so well. It is beautiful, beautiful.\"Wayne Gluf, another pilgrim, from Texas in the United States, says it was very emotional to attend Mass inside the tomb.\"It looks as you would hope it would look coming here as what you think it deserves to look like, to be pristine in that condition like that for one of the most Holy places on earth.\"Father Grenier says the churches are now working on another round of restorations; consolidating drainage and sewage pipes underground, around the tomb, to stabilise its foundations.\"You can see that the ground is an old one, it is from the time of the Crusaders and it will need to be restored also because it is useless to restore the tomb if the floor is to collapse,\" he says. ====Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: info@aparchive.com.
