“The most holy grail may be found in the castle Aaaaaagh.”
Everyone knows the cup is lost. Indiana Jones found it already but fell down into the Earth. Duuuuhhhhhh.
My favorite documentaries are the ones that spend the entire duration on one thing only to at the end go, "eh maybe, could be. Can't be sure though"
the cup of Christ in my opinion is the word he gave... the greatest law... is all you need...
Your video has inspired me to delve deeper into the subject. Thank you for igniting my curiosity!
Sometimes a cup is just a cup.
Next the search for the stone David killed Goliath with, one man now says he's found it....
@Odyssey You channel is awesome, thank you so much for all the videos, I am learning so much, Thanks agian
well presented documentary.. i just love HH
It's amazing how people can be so stupid that they think that the cup Jesus used at the Last Super was an ornate, golden cup encrusted with Ivory and pearls, and expensive gems. It was actually a regular ol' ordinary cup. Jesus did not come to flaunt His divinity. He came as a servant of the Father and to serve humanity by His sacrifice.

Actually, the Holy Grail is the Chalice of Dona Urraca in Leon. And it is a humble roman cup made of onyx. Princess Urraca ordered to cover with her gold and jewells about year 1.080. This aspect is what is told in the Tales of The Grail . " a golden Cup covered with gold and jewells owned by a princess"

Is it a cup? Or a person? Margaret Starbird's research is stunning.
Did fishermen & itinerant preachers routinely drink from ornate agate cups in 1st century Jerusalem? One also wonders why someone would’ve thought to retain a cup, the significance of which would’ve been unclear until long after the event. All of this assumes that it happened in the first place?
Holy Bread Board has been so over looked.

The holy grail never seen since A. D. so there is no such specific cup and never reveal what kind of object that was, but still questioning wondering where is the holy grail
As if. That ain’t the Grail. At least it was shown In the beginning of the video

She didn't "discover " the Holy grail in Valencia, it's been purported to be the real grail for centuries. The Vatican recognises it as a possible grail but doesn't go as far as saying it is the true grail. Its definitely from the right period but there is no actual evidence that it is the grail. If that ever existed.

The first mention of the Holy Grail anywhere is in a romantic tale about King Arthur by Chrétien de Troyes in the 12th century. It's a fictional object. You might as well go looking for Luke Skywalker's light sabre.

But the Tales of the Grail told about a real object : the Chalice of Dona Urraca. A Golden Cup covered with jewells owned by a princess. Urraca´s brother , (king Alfonso VI) was married with two french queens. The trouvadours told about the Cup (thta exists ) when they travelled back to France
The holy grail was his bloodline passed down from him and his wife Mary Magdalene ,the woman you see in Da Vinci's last supper sitting on Christ's right hand,there was no Grail.
I like cheese. I believe that. Greetings from Netherland
If a cup held such power, it wouldn't be hidden away on earth. In human hands it would be misused. Just like the Ark of the Covenant.
The Chalice of Valencia is the Cup of Saint Peter. The Holy Grail (the Cup of Christ) is the Chalice of Dona Urraca in Leon.
Noone will find it. Ever. Giving the fact that Jesus and his followers were not rich noblemen but nomads they most likely drank from a common wooden cup. The concept of a Holy Grail became popular in The Middle Ages when Christianity became dominant religion in Europe.

I think it was the popularity of the Arthurian story that helped populise it too. In the medieval period there was a desire for objects connected to Jesus true, the Veil of Veronica, in the 4th century so still classical period St Helena also went to Jerusalem, the spot where Jesus was believed to have been executed had a church built there, the trip was also looking for other things connected to him, the marble staircase in Pilot's palace, the true cross, so from early on there's been a desire to seek out any object connected with the life of Jesus.
That isn't the cup of a humble carpenter. No.
If this chalice still exist ,is not covered by ruby or gems or made of gold because this is aginst 5he beliefs of what jesse was telling
I really enjoyed this. Having a cup being Kosher in the Jewish context very interesting. Well done.

The apostles wouldnt have even thought to save the cup because it would have been concidered Idol worship. The holy Grail is Christ body which was broken for our iniquity. 2 Corinthians 5:21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the Righteousness of God.
Jesus would not have used an agate cup at the Last Supper. Get real? It was just a common, every cup of clay. The disciples were poor Galileans.😊

It’s not cannibalism. It’s just drinking blood. The fancy cup makes it all so magically delicious.
Yup it ain’t the cup. Pure wooden cup is all they could afford. Just a vessel to drink out of. And who in their right mind would even thank of saving the cup. Probably thru it against the wall ….

I just wrote this also. The cup was wooden..
This is a whole bunch of nothing in search of something that doesn’t exist.
The cup itself was of clay, wood, and maybe alabaster. The golden and bejeweled base was added adornment. A clay, wooden, or even alabaster cup was a common, everyday item used by everyone. This cup may not be The Grail, but someone, at sometime, believed that it was, so they added gold and precious gems to adorn the chalice to "make it worthy" for The Christ.

Clay and wood were forbidden for paschal cups. Only metals or stone (silver, agathe , ónyx) Actually , the Holy Grail is the Chalice of Dona Urraca in Leon. A humble roman onyx cup that was embellished with gold and jewells by Princess Urraca about year 1.080. The Chalice of Valencia is the Cup of Saint Peter . If you notice, the priest can put his lips just on the agathe of the bowl. This point doesn´t happen in the Chalice of Princess Urraca. The ancient onyx bowl is protected by a golden armour. So the priest cannot put his lips in the same place where Christ did. And if you see the protection : the Chalice of Valencia is easily reached with a simple key. The Chalice of Dona Urraca is into a strong glass urn with movement sensors. Sorry my poor english.
I'll stick with Indiana Jones and go with the holy grail being a very common/non flashy cup.. As in a cup of a carpenter.. Which this, is surely NOT!

How sad, I was really banking on having my heart returned to my chest if it was ever removed by a voodoo priest. But thanks for clearing that up for me. But enough sarcasm... I was only saying that what Indiana Jones said was logical. The holy grail would've been the cup of a carpenter. And I don't know how many carpenters had dining ware honed from substances that are typically made into jewelry like onyx. In all reality, the holy grail most likely isn't a cup at all... if it was then where is the holy plate... and the holy fork? You'd think the entire dinette would hold some significance if it was used in the last supper.

@@supafrancis Indiana Jones, Doctor in Archeologist by Hollywood University was wrong. Clay and wood were absolutly forbidden for paschal supper bowls. They are porouses. Only glass, stone or metals were allowed. The place where Christ and the Apostles had the Last Supper belonged to a rich person. So he put on the table the own bowls (that only were used for paschal supper). Its probably that he had stone bowls (onyx or agathe) not silver or glass, for example. The bowl of the chalice of Dona Urraca is a humble roman onyx bowl..(it´s the more probably Holy Grail) The bowl of the Chalice of Valencia is agathe , it´s roman too. We´re talking about two romans chalices of I century BC. embellished many centuries later.. Princess Urraca of Leon even wrote her anme on it , about year 1.080. And ordered to paint a big Last Supper over her tumb. Sorry my poor english.
There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever - historical, empirical or otherwise - that the grail (or graal) was a cup. This is mere conjecture, and has no basis in fact. The only recorded "evidence" comes from the over-excited imaginations of medieval writers of romances, whose tales were written with entertainment in mind, and were never intended to be taken literally.
Cup isn't real just like Jesus😂
Indiana Jones makes a more credible story 😂!
You have chosen...poorly.
A humble man like Jesus would not drink from such an ornate cup. Sculpted and covered in gold and gems... in short, lies and a lousy marketing ploy.
Plausible but nothing definitve.
Only catholics venerate these objects. Sic transit gloria mundi.
So a poor carpenter with his fisherman, tax collecting, farmers ‘friend’ had a jewelled encrusted cup?
BIG ERROR! At 4:12. First Century AD, the drinker poured the wine in his vessel, which was like a syrup, then poured water to the strength he desired. The wine was not as we drink it today. After I viewed this huge error, I stopped watching. If you can't get that simple act correct then this whole video is questionable. THUMBS DOWN! So inaccurate. I expect better from "Odyssey". You traded historical accuracy for sensationalism. This is like watching a documentary on the "History Channel" or "PBS".

The funniest thing is that according to the most reliable source about Jesus, the Bible, Jesus would not have used the cup at the Last Supper. Apparently, Jesus gave a congratulatory message with a glass of bitter wine containing the ashes of burned hyssop, which was used in the Jewish Passover meal at the time. But what is even clearer than that is that when he handed out the cup to his disciples, he declared that he would not drink wine from the vine until the coming of heaven. So, although the wine glass in the documentary may have at least been touched by his hand, there is no other point of contact with it. Of course, the cup would be the only object touched by Jesus and his twelve disciples, and it is also an object guaranteed by the Bible. But what we must not forget is that among the twelve disciples was Judas Iscariot! The sacredness is broken right there. There is nothing sacred among the world's relics.
God is in your soul not a cup.
Holy Grail , the chalice of Christ priesthood. A silver grail , wide mouth vessel , a thing of myth and legend. I emptied three libraries studying it . A warrior monk on a horse rearing on his hind legs , the knight saying , go straight your path , you will see GOD or the Anti god . A demon called the Destroyer meeting you at the cross roads. A cry coming from hell saying , " I should be GOD !!!"
Okay then man-made religion an man-made documentary. Thanks for the entertainment 😅😂

It's a graven image at this point. The search for it has become more important than the faith it represents. If it is a cup, it just that a cup. And anything you put above christ is a graven image. Ppl missed the whole teaching of christ. If the cup was really that important, he would've told a disciples to secure it. All the hocus pocus rituals and bs perpetuated by the catholic church is sin. And if the grail is so important, then what about the plate that held the bread, which was the body of christ?

Oh look Jesus must have bought it at Temu. The locations that sells crap for crap. Maybe a few fish tails to sweeten the deal? Perhaps someone stole from a flea market , very ostentatious like the red Gucci slippers he wore on the cross . Hold 7 oz 220ml liguid. Coveres Wil finely engraved solid gold handles and base with emeralds rubies and pearls . Could have been a discarded fast food go cup, one of the three kings left behind with a straw and some french fries. Also MAGAt jewelry was rare and for the wealthy in Roman times . The cost to fashion a cup of rare red agate would be a kings ransom, However most eating utensils and drink water for common Jew were stone utensils quarried from chalkstone being impervious to contamination. Time to look elsewhere Go figure sorry charlie.
Just a biiiig stretch of the imagination. First, doubtful that a rare red agate cup fit for a kings was at a table of a mere wealthy jew when all dinner and drinkware used at the tone was chalkstone quarried for such items locally. Second agate was rare and semiprecious and forned in volcanos large peices were rate , most was jewerly for the elite because it is mostly in small fragments. Third , sorry lady enjoy your quest. This cup wasnt not hidden away remember the actusl challice has magical qualities and in 1960 when it eas examined by a common man, heaven didnt open up.woth angles on high offering life everlasting and neither did it help the priest from execution nor did any king that obviously drank from it ( sonething spoiled royals did) live forever. Your hopes and dreams came up with an rare cup that plebty of people have drank from and added a bunck gaudy gold to .oble last thing the last supper participants all ate and drnk from the same utensils no mention of one unique cup for just jesus
I believe the real one was wood.🪵
