"…the most important thing about this tomb, is that it's empty."

(Israel)—In part of their "Celebrating Easter" special on CBN.com, there is a video detailing the two Holy Land sites which are said to possibly be the location of the tomb in which Jesus was laid, prior to His resurrection from the dead. (Photo: CBN.com)

One site is the Garden tomb, located—as the name suggests—in a "2-acre oasis" near the heart of Jerusalem, believed by some to have been a garden owned by Joseph of Arimathea from the Bible.

"Everything in those four Gospels matches what we show people here in the garden," Garden Tomb director, Richard Meryon told CBN.

The site that others believe the actual spot where Jesus was entombed for 3 days is at the Church of the Holy Sepulechre.

Regarding the Garden Tomb, guide Steve Bridge told CBN's Chris Mitchell, "The tomb we have here is typical of first century Jewish rolling stone tomb, it's dated as being at least 2,000 years old, possibly older." (Photo: CBN.com)

"It is carved out of the solid rock; it's a man-made tomb and that's how the Bible describes the tomb in which Jesus' body was laid," he noted.

"Finally," added Bridge, "the most important thing about this tomb, is that it's empty."
