- The Veil of Veronica is a priceless relic from biblical times. It is said that this piece of cloth touched Jesus' face and afterwards an image of Christ himself had been printed onto it. The veil has a storied history since then with no one knowing if the copy held by The Vatican is the real deal or not.

"Veronica" is not a Jewish name. It appears to be a conflation of the Greek words "vera" and "iconica" which mean "true icon." From the year 944 A.D. to 1204 A.D. the Orthodox Church in Constantinople was in possession of the Image of Edessa which was a folded up linen cloth which had an image of Jesus' face on it. This cloth was what we now call the Turin Shroud folded up so that only its facial aspect could be seen. The Byzantines painted icons of the Image of Edessa, and these icons were called "true icons" or "vera iconica" because they had been copied from the original scene, i.e. the Image of Edessa. The Byzantines also invented a new legend which better explained the blood and bruises depicted on Jesus face, and that legend said that the image of Jesus' face had been imprinted on the cloth when a woman offered that cloth to Jesus as he carried his cross.
This legend along with the term "vera iconica" accompanied exports of icons to the West. The populace in the West applied the Greek words "vera iconica" to that woman and conflated those words to "Veronica." See minute 31:31.
The truth of the matter is that the story of Veronica is a legend that has no basis in historical fact. It is not recorded in the Gosples, and did not come into being until the 10th or 11th century.
For a detailed account see: "Holy Faces, Secret Places," Wilson, 1991.
Excellent!
So make a vid
@@Nanaof_8 Don't know how. My primary interest is the Prophecy of the Popes which is poorly understood. Veronica can wait.
Why does everyone ignore the fact that shellfish silk cannot be painted or dyed.
Because we don’t even know that it’s Sea Silk. costume.mini.icom.museum/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/12/Felicitas_Maeder_Toronto_article_PDF.pdf
The question put forth by this video is whether the Veronica is a miracle or a forgery. The answer is "neither." The Veronicas (there were more than one) were simply Byzantine icons of the Mandylion that were painted on cloth. An icon is not a "forgery," it is just a painting of some kind of religious scene. In this case the scene was the allegedly miraculous image of Jesus' face that was on the Mandylion. When those icons were exported to the West, the populace mistook them for miraculous depictions of Jesus' face. But that mistake does not make those icons "forgeries" as they were never intended to be understood as anything more than painted icons.
In this regard, it should be understood that the Manoppello image is not a Byzantine icon and was not made using the Mandylion as a model. Most likely it a watercolor painted by Durer on a transparent fabric. It has the characteristics of a Medieval European rendition of Jesus' face.
Yeap bro!Actually the "scaming"goes a little deeper,a little more back in time. It goes back to idolatry,to "Christian" "experts" aka "Cristian" Ecumenical Synods .
It goes back to "theologian" schools.
Back to subversion from inside .
The Byzantium was an era of subversing The Word of Jesus Christ.
It was the mixing of Pagan-christian.
I m looking at this these days,i m in Greece by the way.
We ve all been scamed as it looks,but it s getting revield.
It has to.But ...they wanna bring it all down,No!
Truth will stand!
It Will. We look for the Truth,to the root of the "forcef mis stearing".
If we re honest,we ll get there i think. Hope we ll make it through this turbuland time my bro!
Exactly. Unlike the shroud these were painted on.
Unlike the image on the shroud, and most likely the mandylion, this image is not of photographic/negative image quality, but obviously a painting of typical medieval stylization. More than anything, it resembles the icon paintings created and venerated by the early orthodox churches. How the painting was actually made, when, and where it was created, and who by, are details lost to time. While the evidence given supports the idea the the Manoppello version may well be the original image originally kept by the Vatican, it is, nonetheless, clearly a medieval iconistic styled painting.
@@dianatodd2300 As all information that matters unfortunately,we can t veryfy.There s no way,so all this theatre only brings confusion and devision between us bro.
They twist each story as it suites them.
Seems like a lot of info about the "churches" is missing. About wall paintings,temples architecture,deciding who s saint n who s not...
Many coisidenses on many "practices" ...Don t know,but o got a feeling we re dealing with the same ocult infortration really early.
We got the first "experts commity" in Byzantium...
Many "weird coisidenses" i find as i look..
Very well said. You seem to have an understanding of the Orthodox faith and the nature of icons. Bravo! 👍
Interesting......but still only objects, real, false or otherwise....not to be prayed to, or venerated.
It was a miracle!
Bot
People have been bamboozled. This piece is a bad drawing on cloth. Only a few years ago they say another cloth was one buried with him and it was awful as well.
....and it coincidentally exhibits decidedly late medival/Renaissance style.
If i remember rightly the renaissance artist were coping from this image first.
It’s a bot
@@Coffee_n_Opera lol...yup.
Curious if the Veronica image matches up with the Shroud of Turin.
The Shroud of Turin has already been proven to be a medieval fraud.
That depends on which Veronica you are talking about. Most of the Veronica depictions originated in Constantinople and were based on the facial image of the Mandylion. They are similar in appreance and sepia color to the image of Jesus' face on the Shroud. The highly touted Manoppello image did not originate in Constantinople and is most likely a watercolor painting by Durer on a transparent fabric. It does not match up with Shroud's image.
it doesn't
It looks totally fake. Absolutely no sign of agony, blood or the thorns. This picture looks so perfect as the person was posing in a studio. It's said that Jesus's portrait was actually that of a cruel man named Cesare Borgia.
The face may have transferred for sure but not the actual eyes
Definitely not an imposed image just an iconic painting on cloth.
So what does this mean for the Stations of the Cross? Does the station about Veronica wiping Jesus' face get removed?
It's fake. It doesn't look anything remotely to the Shroud of Turin
So we're all going to pretend that my 4 year old couldn't produce a more convincing drawing than either of these? How ridiculous is this?
😂 thank goodness you said this, I thought I was going crazy 😂😂😂
Where you see Real,add an Is... :) The world is upsidedown for many many wears as it seems.
Let's see...Passover in the Holy Land. Jesus has been up all night. Been scourged, tears of pity for his torturers...beaten...sweaty, oily skin, sandy dry terrain...why WOULDN'T there be an imprint on a cloth given to wipe his face?:
I agree except for the eyes
Because Jesus is God in flesh, and transfigured his human image to his Divine nature like He did on the Mount of Transfiguration. It appears to be the same phenomenon as the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico and Our Lady of las Lajas in Colombia.
@@onemercilessming1342 Because when we wipe our faces with a cloth we don't just flop it down, it becomes crumpled and any image would be smeared at best. Just a silly fake.
@@persephoneeleuthereus2325 Jesus is not God in the flesh you have been fed a false message by Babylon the Great. Get outof her (Revelation 18:4)
I nev er heard of The Vail until now.
- lol @ that caricature.
How did an iris of the eye be painted on a cloth as well!?
Just say Shroud of Turin.
It's not tho. Whole different relic
Downvote the video if you disagree with it.
@@krystinaland4137 The Veronica icons were derived from the facial depiction of Jesus that is on the Shroud.
@@jeffreyerwin3665 did you not watch the doc? And that can't be true because the picture on the shroud looks nothing like the Veronica. They didn't even know the shroud contained an image of a face until negatives became a thing. However I don't Believe it to be real because I know how God feels about images and idols, he hates them. So why would he himself make an image of himself for man? It's like creating a stumbling block and I don't think that's God's character. But hey I could be wrong.
@@krystinaland4137 God's commandment to man is that man must not make idols for worship. God can order men to make a "two golden cherubs" as embelishments for the Ark of the Covenant (Ex. 25:18), but these are not representations of any god and are not worshipped. God commanded man not to kill, but God himself is not bound by that commandment (see 2 Sam 6:7)
The reason that Jesus left the images of his corpse on his burial cloth is to fulfill his promise of a sign from himself (Mt. 12:38) that would be for "an evil generation." Jesus defined that sign by predicting that his burial would only last a short time (Mt. 12:40) The images of his dead body that are on the Shroud validate that promise. They prove that his corpse was removed from that cloth less than 48 hours after death. That is why those images are there. They fulfill Jesus' promise of a sign and they prove that he was a real first century person in this evil era when people try to say that he never even existed. Since the images are miraculous, they also prove that he worked miracles, and they validate his teachings.
In ancient times the Shroud has hidden in a secret vault until the sixth century. When it was recovered it was always viewed folded several times so that only its facial aspect was shown. An idea of what Jesus looked like was derived from this facial image even though it is like a photographic negative. Many Veronica icons have been made, and these are similar to what is seen on the Shroud. The Manoppello image was not derived directly from the Shroud and is most likely a watercolor painting by Durer on a transparent cloth.
Couldn't stop laughing, he said it right there, about a village that's unknown and off the beaten track..... So let's have a relic to bring in tourists.... Couldn't stop laughing at the obvious plot.....
If this is the true veil, why is it so different from the image on the 'Shroud of Turin'?
The Shroud of Turin, shows a man with much more hair, with a thick moustache and beard and does NOT look anywhere near to this image.
No wounds on the forehead, no crown of thorns, no blood transfer. An artists impression.
Good point.
Considering we know next to nothing about Jesus's crucifixion nothing you cited can be used to prove anything. Every account of the crucifixion vary so vastly in detail, from the day of the execution down to the more minute details, that we can't say anything more than that an apocalyptic lunatic most likely called Jesus was crucified.
@@Jan_von_Gratschoff "We?" Speak for yourself, sir. Many of us know a lot about these things and can say a lot more, too. The "lunatic" slur is more aptly applied to your own self. (LOL!)
No one alive was there let alone you!
@@jeffreyerwin3665 Lunatics no nothing so should have no opinion 😂
I CAN'T. Paul and that priest actually have dinner IN Turin. IN TURIN. THE most studied artefect of ANY type, in all human history, is practically down the street, and these foremen go and get ga-ga over a cartoon charactiture. Lord help me.
The shroud of Turin has already been proven to be a fraud. They are all frauds. Every last one of them.
In 1978 24 scientists spent five days examining the Shroud and its images. They had four TONS of equipment and went over every inch of the cloth. If the images on the Shroud had been any kind of medieval forgery, those scientists would easily have found that out. They spent three years analyzing their evidence, but in the end they had to admit failure. They could not explain how the Shroud's images of a crucified corpse had been imprinted on the cloth. Currently, there is a standing reward offered of one million dollars to anyone who can accurately reproduce the images found on the Shroud. No one has even treid to claim that reward.
The shroud is NOT the most studied artifact that's the problem.
If you wipe someones face, can you posibly capture The person's EYE BALLS? people showing a spat of belief is ridiculous, yet alone dovoting your entire life making a story of it is crazy.. whats more believable is people are making money out of this.. for sure
Interesting documentary.💯👏
What about the dimensions?
Jesus wouldn't have looked so ugly. We have the testimony of Pontius Pilate's wife who saw him and described his appearance as being very handsome.
Do you have a source for that? I don't believe there are any first-hand, contemporaneous records that Jesus even existed, much less that he was some handsome chap.
@@joelirish Yes, there is. It's on TH-cam. I forget what the title of the video is but key in Pontius Pilate and hopefully it will come up for you. There is also mention of Jesus in "Josephus". We only doubt the existence of Jesus because of thr pratings of ignorant people who haven't done their research.
@@dawnemile7499 I'm sure I don't need to tell you or anyone that TH-cam vids might not be the best resource; I've seen some pretty whacky stuff on here 🤪Flavius Josephus was born after the death of Jesus, no? Not a first-hand account. And the oldest of his extant writings only date back about a thousand years.
@@joelirish I have a print copy of Josephus. Check it out. TH-cam videos give you references that you can find yourself.
@@joelirish Please do your own research. The best proof of Jesus' existence is the Bible. Only people who haven't studied the Bible question his existence. Our veey calendar is dated from his birth.
Shroud of Turin ... has been proven to be a painting.
Next fairy tale.
There is a real veil of Veronica which matches completely that on the shroud of turin. The image venerated in thumbnail 4this video is fake & has NONE of the qualities of the Turin shroud which cannot be recreated today at all.
It's a complete Fake

And Veronica.
Betty and Veronica.
AMEN JESUS KRISHT👑👑👑😇✝️💒❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌏🕊🕊
But why doesn’t it look like the face on the Shroud, the true image of Jesus?
The Shroud image is typical of Gothic art from the medieval period.
ONE LOOK IS ALL IT TOOK!!!
What a con.
They are all forgeries.
I mean, the event never took place in the first place. This is much ado about nothing. The Empire's religion is an amusement park that expects us to take it seriously.
How do you know it never happened? How can you possibly know that. Where's your faith?

@@JohnBieniaSongbook where is your understanding of art history? that image has more to do with a quattrocento stlye of depiction than an artifact from 2000 years ago
Jesus, I trust in You. For the sake of His sorrowful passion have mercy on us, and all of the whole world.
“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full." -Matthew 6:5
God does NOT have a face. He is a spirit. Without flesh and bones. Jesus Christ is NOT a god. He is the Son of God !
The Mandylion is also in the Vatican collection; neither portrait looks like the other!
The Vatican may have an icon of the Mandylion. The actual cloth was lost from history when the French 4th Crusade sacked Constantinople in 1204 A.D. It may have surfaced in Lirey, France, in about 1357.
NEVER STATED IN THE BIBLE. MAKE BELIEVE STORY
Cannot believe a priest just stated that Pontius Pilate condemned Jesus! He famously washed his hands of Jesus - the pharmacies condemned him.
Walgreen’s or Duane Reede?
What that,s in the bible.
When God was the ten commandments he didn't say the three of us you got to worship us all he said there's only one God
There is no god
“Let Us create man in Our image.” Genesis, God at creation “I and the Father are one.” -Jesus’ own words
old Testament and New Testament are clearly, not the same god.
You re SO right on that my friend! "Organized religions" have been manipulated n corrupted,All of them!
The veil
Never existed and you are bonkers.
😂 Aachige redde
WAS HER NAME ACTUALLY REALLY VERONICAM?
Isaiah 53:2 .... Jesus wasn't pretty
Wrong ethnicity
Myth upon myth.......that's religion
Biblical archaeology proves you wrong like the Tel Dan stele that mentions The House of David or the Seal of Isaiah being found or Caiaphas bone box or the cyrus cilinder or the pontius pilate stone or the Shroud of Turin that has three D information on it,
Oh my word, are we really meant to accept a painting on a thin piece of cloth as a the magic image of somebody?
Come on, if you smeared your face with oil and dirt, and put a cloth over it to gain an impression, it would be a smear, a mere skidmark.
"So-called" Stations of the Cross? That sounds like the person making that claim is calling Jesus a fraud.
Charing Cross ?
why does jesus look like he is from my contry norway... and not from the midle east
If Jesus hands were tied to the cross as he carried it, how did he wipe his face and hand the cloth back to her? Nonsense.
No his hands were not tied while he carried the cross.Whete are people getting this stuff??

All in all it looks like a middle eastern man than a blond white man in the movies. He is also not African man, so let's ❌ that idea. 😂
What is wrong with you people I just don't understand God is God is God is god. God is not a trinity he is one God not three😮
God IS God ! IS God IS ?
God equals ALL that IS !
There IS only the One ! All other is but a fraction of the One !
I still can't believe people believe in this nonsense it's just a bunch of stories even if there was an historical person that existed stories are not logical there's nobody I can come back from the dead stories of illogical
I'm not shock because Roman catholic is a created and invented by Roman empire who's religion is paganism . so I concluded that this people all will never see the heaven
how your God have picture , form and see , God is spirit , no form , no image , cannot be seen , this is panganism
A painting 😊
When you’re too scared of being alone… you become religious.
