Via Dolorosa - Jerusalem |
Via Dolorosa - JerusalemIn reality, we have no idea which way Jesus was routed through Jerusalem to Golgotha. Some of the 13 stations of Via Dolorosa are un-Biblical folklore (e.g., where Jesus supposedly got to meet and chat with Mary, His mother), while other stations are arbitrary locations for Biblical but unplaceable events (e.g., where Simon of Cyrene took over carrying the cross for Jesus). Today, there is nothing painful about Via Dolorosa, which is just a long bustling market street through Old Jerusalem with tourist shops strategically located next to each of the 13 stations.
