It's been a church, a mosque and a synagogue. Jesus is said to have
dined there. James, his brother, is believed to have been interred
there. King David may be buried beneath the floor. The subject of
intense speculation by both scholars and the faithful, the Cenacle
on Mount Zion-also known as the Upper Room of the New Testament
gospels and as the Tomb of David-has remained a mystery for
centuries. Claimed by Jews, Christians and Muslims, the sacred
structure continues to evoke passionate controversy. Does it date
back to the time of Christ? Was the Last Supper celebrated there?
Is this the place where the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles
on the first Pentecost following Easter Sunday? Did King David's
remains ever lie there? These and many other questions are explored
in this first-ever study, offering a readable, fully researched
narrative account of the Cenacle's history, archaeology and
imagery. Artistic, architectural and photographic illustrations
document the Cenacle and its surroundings over the past 1,500
years.
