Sign of Jonah and the Shroud

In this captivating episode of The Backstory on the Shroud of Turin, host Guy R. Powell sits down with biblical scholar Larry Stalley to ask: Is the Shroud of Turin the mysterious “Sign of Jonah” that Jesus referenced in Matthew’s Gospel?

Stalley introduces listeners to his fascinating research, outlined in his new book Divine Testimony for the Resurrection, and explores how cryptic references in Matthew, Hebrews, and the letters of John may point to knowledge of the Shroud in the early Church. They dive deep into the typology of Jonah’s three days in the belly of the sea monster and draw a parallel to Christ’s three days in the tomb wrapped in the linen burial cloth—the Shroud.

Discover how “the discipline of the secret” might explain why the Gospel writers didn’t openly refer to the image on the Shroud, and how this could serve as God's own visual testimony to the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

This episode will enrich your faith and deepen your understanding of biblical prophecy and relics. Don't miss this deep theological dive with Larry Stalley.
