Where Jesus was baptized on Jordan River, Franciscans hold festive mass: PODCAST

307 shares Welcome to Times will Tell, the newly rebranded weekly podcast from The Times of Israel. This week we go onsite to Qasr Al-Yahud on the banks of the Jordan River, where Christians believe Jesus was baptized. We attended the first mass in 54 years at a Franciscan church called the St. John the Baptist Chapel. Along with another dozen or so churches on both sides of the Jordan near Jericho, the chapel commemorates Jesus’s baptism by John the Baptist. This January 10 was the date on which the Catholic church marks the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord or Theophany. Meaning, the priests were commemorating the day of Jesus’s baptism at the place where he was meant to have been baptized some 2,000 years ago.

Bullet-ridden chapel on River Jordan holds first mass since six-day war Harriet Sherwood © Provided by The Guardian Photograph: Reuters Mass was celebrated on Sunday at the site where Jesus is believed to have been baptised on the banks of the River Jordan for the first time in more than half a century after more than 1,000 landmines were cleared. The service took place on Baptism of Christ Sunday, the day on which Christians commemorate Jesus’s baptism. The site has been off limits since the six-day war between Israel and some of its Arab neighbours in 1967. Israeli forces took control of the west side of the river from Jordan, which lies on the east side. The West Bank has been under Israeli military occupation ever since.
