Footnote 3 – The Church of the Holy Sepulchre (in Bologna, Italy)
During the ceremony, celebrated on Easter Saturday to symbolize the Resurrection, a lamp inside the darkened tomb of Jesus was lit—as the faithful believed, miraculously by Holy Fire from heaven—and the flame was then used to light the candles and lamps of worshipers crowded inside the Rotunda.
