It symbolizes the exit from the tomb of the resurrected Jesus.
On Saturday, April 23, the Holy Fire descended in the Jerusalem Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
The ceremony was available on Youtube.
The removal from the shrine of fire symbolizes the exit from the Tomb of the “True Light”, that is, the resurrected Jesus Christ.
It is known that the temple can accommodate 10 thousand people. Usually there are many more people who want to see the Descent, so pilgrims gather on the square in front of the Temple and on the neighboring streets.
