In this episode of The Backstory on the Shroud of Turin, host Guy Powell interviews evangelical apologist and theologian Tom Dallis. The two dive deep into Jewish burial customs from the first century and how these practices offer compelling support for the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin. Dallis details how key figures like Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea honored Jesus Christ with kingly burial rites—including 75 pounds of burial spices and fine linen, exactly what we’d expect for a royal entombment.
But the discussion doesn’t stop at tradition. Dallis explores how modern science can further bolster the case for the Shroud, applying odds calculus and Bayesian probability. By combining over 30 lines of evidence—from forensic blood analysis to image formation science—Dallis concludes that the probability of forgery is so low it borders on the impossible.
You’ll also learn how the Shroud reflects not only the physical suffering of Jesus but also echoes the symbolic role of Christ as the High Priest in the Holy of Holies.
Whether you're grounded in faith or grounded in data, this episode challenges you to think deeper about the most famous burial cloth in history.
