First century Jewish burial rites included preparing a body with fragrant resins & spices, oils of nard, myrrh and aloes. The gospel of John records: "Nicodemus, who had previously come to Jesus at night, also brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about 75 pounds. So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths with the spices, according to the Jewish burial custom" (John 19:39-40).
The Holy Shroud Candle is a blend of pure olive oil from the Galilee region of the Holy Land and a special gifted oil from the 2000-year-old trees in the Garden of Gethsemane. Infused with some of the ancient burial fragrances mentioned in the gospel accounts of the resurrection, it symbolically represents the scents that would have been present on the linen burial cloth of Jesus. We pray that the divine aroma of this devotional oil will remind you of the hope and promise of eternal life offered through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. 3" x 3" Glass, Hand Poured with soy wax.
