Скачать или смотреть Orthodox Christians mark Good Friday in Greece

(14 Apr 2017) Orthodox Christians in Athens marked Good Friday by attending the re-enactment of the Descent of Jesus from the Cross.
In a religious ceremony held at the Penteli Monastery near Athens, priests removed an icon of Christ from the Cross on a mount representing Calvary, a site outside Jerusalem's walls where they believe Jesus was crucified.
They then carried the icon, wrapped in linen, in a procession before placing it inside a cave, which symbolises the tomb of Christ.
