Today's Via Dolorosa |
| Issue: 2001, Volume 34, Issue 2 |
| Subject: Christianity|Theology |
| Author: Dillon, Edward J. |
Issue Description: In Ed Dillon's country parish in upstate New York, church members reenact the Stations of the Cross on the Friday before Holy Week. Tracing the Stations of the Cross has been a pious custom, especially for Latin Catholics, since the time of the Crusades. The Link asked Pastor Dillon to go to Jerusalem and to construct a modern parable while following the course of the original Via Dolorosa and reflecting on the figures who found themselves there 2,000 years ago. Who could be cast today as Jesus, Dillon asked himself. "For those who come to the Holy Land with eyes to see and ears to hear," he writes, "the answer is the Palestinian people."
