Only three times in a century will Easter fall at the same time as Passover and Ramadan and this year people traveled to the holy city of Jerusalem to celebrate and worship in a rare overlap of the three faiths. NBC’s Richard Engel gives an inside look for TODAY and brings back gifts to Studio 1A to mark the occasion.

To think that Richard just lost his son less than a year ago but still remembers others! Class act all the way!

This segment was very touching! Thanks Richard for showing this on the Today show. So nice of you to bring religious souvenirs for your friends. They have special significance and value as they were touched to the stone where Jesus’ body was prepared for burial... that place is sacred... it actually emanates a fragrance of roses... I enjoyed your report on the Holy Land with the three most important religions in the world, celebrating their feast days at the same time.👍🏻🙏✝️

God bless Richard for your witness of Christian love in action with the gift of the Blessed Rosaries. Very kind and thoughtful ending and a reminder to all of us, regardless of faith or spirituality, the power of love in action. May the God who is Love bring peace and love to us all this Holy Week. Amen. 🙏

@aspartame.addict Год назад

Visiting the Holy Land just recently renewed my faith. I had strayed from the Catholic Church and when my parents shared that they were planning to join a pilgrimage, I asked to join as well. Walking the path that Jesus walked filled me with a sense of spirituality I cannot even describe. It should be a goal of every Catholic to visit the Holy Land.

@io6619 Год назад

Unfortunately, by visiting Jerusalem, you are also indirectly supporting apartheid and the murder of Palestinian Christians and their Muslim brothers-because it’s currently under Israeli occupation, and the Israeli government committing these atrocities benefits from the tourism cash flow. I don’t think every Christian should support the oppression of other Christians

Actually The Passover and Easter always coincide because Jesus was laid in the Tomb on the night of the Passover but Ramadan overlaps once in 12 years as Islam follows the Lunar calendar which has 29 days less in a year.

@MrEVAQ Год назад

Passover is also determined based on a lunar calendar.

@slev6592 Год назад

That’s wrong. Christians stoped using the Jewish calendar so they now celebrate Easter on an arbitrary date determined by a pagan Callander.

@REDnBLACKnRED Год назад

It's funny to me that they say eastern and western religions when they all originated in and around Jerusalem. To me, as someone from Asia, these are all western religions, and very close ones too. Whereas Hinduism, Buddhism, Shintoism, Confucianism and the like are eastern religions that are entirely separate form the three being discussed here.

@KE-xj9vm Год назад

@@Taylor-lm5op their interpretations and rules are different and at times in conflict. But all of them believe that there is one god, who they pray to in the same spot. I’m not religious but I’m spiritual. Once a pastor told me something that really resonated with me… he said “people cannot understand what god is, but when they try, they make god less than what it is”. So I feel all the scriptures are just an attempt to understand, by some people a long time ago, and many people have committed to a specific interpretation that the choose to believe, but regardless of the interpretation, at it’s core, it’s just an interpretation of the same thing
