BURIAL OF JESUS BY JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA Our Lady Of Seven Sorrows Silver Medal 2023

The reverse of the medal features the famous scene the Jesus' body lay in Mary's lap. She wished to hold him close to her forever, but there was no time to lose. Twilight was approaching, and with it the Sabbath, the most important Jewish festival, when all work was to cease. Christ had to be buried by that time. The burial was hasty, but worthy of a king. Joseph of Arimathea bought a clean fine linen and provided his tomb - a pristine crypt carved into a nearby rock that had not yet been used. The reverse of the medal, the inscription: "POHREB JEZISA" - the name of the medal. The obverse of the medal features the Virgin Mary with a heart pierced by seven swords. On the obverse, the inscription: "MATER DOLOROSA".
