Uxmal

 

 
 
 Luke 24:10
“It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.”

 
 
 
Columbia
(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Women were the first to see Christ after he was resurrected, and that story is represented on the walls and stained glass within the Cathedral of the Madeleine in Salt Lake City as seen on Tuesday, March 30, 2021.
 
 
 Who was Joanna?
Joanna was an upper-class Jewish woman in 1st century Palestine.
She married Chuza, an influential member of the staff of Herod Antipas, the Roman-appointed ruler of Galilee.
She knew Jesus at least as well as any of the apostles did, and was committed to his mission.
She was married, probably at a young age, to Chuza, who oversaw the complicated household of Herod Antipas, rulerof Galilee (not king; his father had the title of king, but Antipas did not).
 
 
Luke 24:2
“And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.”

 
UXMAL
La majestuosa fachada real.
Los tres cuerpos que forman la Casa del Gobernador en Uxmal desarrollan su amplia articulación sobre un terraplén, atravesado por una escalinata monumental. A lo largo de casi 100 m, el edificio, con sus dos alas unidas por unos arcos, presenta un friso de temas repetitivos que corona los once vanos que dan acceso a los espacios interiores.
