The one I always wonder about is St. Joseph..........

It's always amazed me that the remains and final resting place of the foster father of Jesus himself should be so .......incognito..............if that's the right word.

see Matthew 27:52-53. While not dogma, it's 'assumed' those risen were taken up into heaven as well.

Which reminds me, someone posted a story about the controversy over the control of the Cenacle or Upper Room in Jerusalem. Some one pointed out that it is also connected to the Tomb of David. Pious Jews admit the tomb is empty. If I have these facts correct, that certainly is interesting.

The Tomb of David has never been found- the tomb of David where Jews pray is symbolic, it does lie in the same house, underneath the room where local lore says the Last Supper and the Epiphany occurred

Been there, got the t-shirt
