And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost, returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the desert.Luke 4:1, Douay-Rheims
Walk the ancient paths. This handmade picture jasper rosary carries the textured, sandy tones of the desert itself, the forty days Christ kept there and the harsh, beautiful landscapes of the Holy Land. It is the rosary of the pilgrim: durable, earthy, and pointed toward home.
The Crown of Thorns: A Heritage of the Passion
In ancient Christian tradition, the resilient branches of the Jujube tree were woven into the Crown of Thorns placed upon Christ's head. For centuries, pilgrims to the Holy Land have carried pieces of this heavy, durable wood home as physical reminders of His sacrifice. In this rosary, the Our Father beads, the centerpiece, and the crucifix are all carved from genuine Jujube wood, so that a reflection of the Passion rests in your hands as you pray.
