Tomb of the Kings |
This closure to the public is quite a shame. It is perhaps the best tomb complex for understanding 1st century burial practices.
The tomb belonged to Queen Helene, a pious supporter of Jerusalem in the 1st century. It was mistakenly identified as the tomb of David's royal family, thus the name.
Thanks to Todd Bolen for revealing what stands behind the locked gates! See all the photos at www.bibleplaces.com.
