MEADVILLE, Pa., Sept. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "Evidence of the Crucifixion: The Place of the Skull and the Resurrection Tomb": an in-depth exploration of the most sacred of Christian sites. "Evidence of the Crucifixion" is the creation of published author Samuel Cravotta, a devout servant of God who received a vision of the Crucifixion that in turn spurred him to visit Israel.
Cravotta shares, "As early as 1842, a German theologian named Otto Thenius proposed the idea that the outcropping of rock known today as 'Skull Hill' could possibly be significant in the identification of the site of the Crucifixion. That idea lay seemingly dormant for quite some time until General Charles Gordon on sabbatical in the area (1883) began to publish similar ideas. Because of his importance in British society at that time, the idea took hold, and people began to look seriously at the claims that this could possibly be the site listed in the New Testament as Golgotha (Aramaic) or Calvary
(Latin)—the place of the skull.
It was the efforts of two ladies in particular, Charlotte Hussey and Louisa Hope, who followed these ideas and began to take them seriously and thought that the place ought to be preserved. In September 22, 1892, a notice was placed in the London Times asking people to donate the finds necessary to purchase the site (then offered for sale by a German family)."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Samuel Cravotta's new book is a spirited effort to not only bring awareness to the current state of Skull Hill and other sites, but also to deepen every Christian's appreciation for what Christ had done for them in the holy land all those years ago.
As Cravotta takes the reader on an unforgettable journey through these pages, believers will feel as if they have been to the holy sites themselves, heartened by the fact that people are taking measures to maintain their sanctity.
