The Pieta is the most moving work of art. It's unreal
You know what will be breathtaking is when Jesus Christ comes back to rule the world.🌎 be ready.
@@BerylOrchowski Jesus was supposed to return two millennia ago, according to repeated assertions in the Gospels. He's a bit late...

He is rising in my front yard. Later he will go down in my back yard.
A mother grieving her son. They gave everything for mankind.
And we continue sinning.
@@equine2020
The "son" is not dead, he is only sleeping. He will be awoken in time for the Pass Over from winter/death to summer/life. The Savior Sun never dies.
Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? Arise, do not cast us off for ever. Ps 44.23.
That was breathtakingly beautiful…you could almost feel the chills yourself when she touched the foot. I’m sure my jaws would be open with awe and wonder of how the basilica was built with majestic details ❤
During my 3 visits over the years, there's no long lines to see either the Pieta or touching the foot. I guess the basilica are open long hours.
The most stunning thing was that Michelle Angelo finished the Pieta when he was 24! I always admire Angello more than da Vinci's because of the numbers of incredible art he produced in his life time!
I have always wondered what it looks like to see the tomb of St. Peter. Nora is so lucky to have this special, intimate tour of The Vatican. I just wonder what else she was able to see that was edited out.
I loved How emotional she became when she was allowed entrance to the Pieta. However, the keys St. Peter are holding are the keys to the kingdom of Heaven, not the key to solution.
they're not the same thing?
The ultimate “solution” came down incarnate 2000 years ago
Peter's sign is Aries, the first month in the Kingdom of Heaven/Promised Land.
@@historysuit9418And Christ founded the Church, and told Peter, “What you bind on Earth, you bind in Heaven.”
Christ set up a structure with an authority. Study history or an encyclopedia-it’s all there. God bless!
I remember as a child going to the Vatican Pavilion at the New York World's Fair in 1964 and seeing the "Pieta" which was on loan. You stood on a moving sidewalk which glided you into a dark room and there behind a plastic wall to protect it and with a soft spotlight on it was the statue. Somewhere in my attic I have the 16mm film that my mother took as we went passed.
Venus and Adonis are beautiful.
I saw the Pieta at the Worlds Fair also. I was 14 years old
What a beautiful behind-the-scenes tour. And the perfect sensitive and respectful journalist to take you through and experience the Basilica.
What Norah touched isn't St. Peter's tomb itself, but the top of a grave marker from the 2nd century built directly above the tomb. The lower level of St. Peter's is the original level from when Constantine built the first structure. It's speculated that Peter's bones were moved from their original resting place during the construction of Old St. Peter's and placed nearby for safekeeping.
How gorgeous! My #1 travel destination when I can afford it
Been there 5 times. Every time it takes my breath away.
It was incredible! I visited in 2022. Love the Church. Saint Peter, pray for us!
St Peter's Basilica has always struck me as so beautiful
It is. I've been there. An unforgettable experience.
I got to see the Pieta' in New York city during the World's Fair 1964-1965. It was hard to fathom the miraculous skill of Michelangelo's folded and creased fabric, on the Madonna, made of stone.
I experienced it also. I wasn't a person of faith at 15, but it was deeply moving. I remember the quiet, the lighting, and the conveyor belt. What a remarkable piece of art.
The most amazing part was that he completed it at the age of 24!
Was there in February, the canopy had not been renovated yet so I could see it in its full glory. Everyone's lucky in their own different ways, innit?
It’s a joy to experience Nora’s respect and awe.
bucket list to visit here one day.
It's free to see it inside st Peter, but there's always long lines to enter the square since Pope Francis. The lines filled the square, even in the 🌧️, people from all nationality waited patiently for security check points.
Do not put it off. I have visited St. Peter's at least 3 or 4 times. It was an amazing experience, each and every time. I hope to return before I die.
Having the pleasure, as I had it, of seeing “La Pietà”, this work of art directly in person, up close, it seems unbelievable that a human being was able to pull such a masterpiece out of a marble boulder. It is incredible the genius of the great Michelangelo ! Of course, the same applies to the other great, immense, work of art.... the David ! Being in front of these works of art, one is simply speechless !
The actual Tomb of St. Peter is under the Grottos. I was lucky enough to have visited the tomb during a Scavy tour. Under the Grottos is absolutely amazing, visiting the Papal Tombs was incredible also.
What a special, special piece for you to do. I can only imagine the peace and emotions you felt being there in person. Wonderful. What a blessing! ❤
Thank you very much for sharing this. I got chills just watching it on the screen.

Thank You for sharing this beautiful experience Nora
🙏 I really enjoy it
you have to experience it to really appreciate it. truly awe inspiring
The emotion came through in her report. Amazing 🙏🏼
Speechless my heart ❤️ 💯 started racing watching thank you 🙏 for letting us see
Love St Peter's basilic .. I have been twice already . We ta ke a full day here with the chapel . It's truly amazing . This was a bucket list for me that I have now seen twice e . Every time I go I learn or find something new . It is truly amazing
Nora....this was amazing....your emotions.
Impresiona verlo en vídeo, más debe de impresionar verlo al natural 0:55 💕💕Mi Jesús nunca he estado en Roma pero igual yo admiro tu grandeza
with knowledge of the type of technology then in creating such splendour, I am in complete and utter awe. wow.
I've been fortunate to be in St Peter's Basilica myself
I want to see more content like this, this is beautiful.
Looks beautiful and magical...Holy place
Wonderful material
Great respect from 🇵🇱🕊️🤝
Normally you don’t get to be up close to the pieta. It’s behind bulletproof glass. You can only see it from about 15 yards.
Yes, but prior to May 21, 1972 you could. Unfortunately, that's the day the Pieta was damaged, and now it's behind bulletproof glass because of it.
@@jnuval That nutcase who attacked the artwork with a hammer or something, right? This is why we can't have nice things.
@@anthtan
Sounds like D.J. Trump.
@@anthtan Not only that he got notoriety for it, there’s even an art school named after him. Safe to say if the pietà protective glass was removed it would be vandalized in a couple of years by a fan of “the gentle hammer”.
@@ad_astra468 why would any institution honour him by taking his name?!?
Michelangelo biography written by artist who knew him personally.....he was around 19 when he overheard two men discussing the newly sculpted Pieta and attributing it to another artist. Michelangelo visited his statue in evening and carved his name on shash across Mary chest....the only sculpture he ever signed
Truly blessed Norah
To describe this place as magnificent doesn't get close to its granduer. 🎉
Amazing experience. So lucky
So beautiful!!
Truly worthy of the majesty of Christ and his church
Praise be to God and Lord Jesus Christ!
Amen!
Father and the guardian of our Holy Catholic mother Church
Saint Peter, Apostle of the Apostles,
On this Pentecost day, I beg Mercy for my sinfulness and all my faults. Bless me. O Gracious!
God has mercy on you not St. Peter...
@@isaiah3872 Saint Peter has the keys of heaven. We must read the gospels and the Holy Bible with love and concentration.
One whom he binds on earth shall be bound in the heaven, and whom he loses on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Now my dear
I believe that you will not think that Saint Peters is helpless or non worthy before God the father and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our Lord Jesus Christ is our saviour.
Praise to the Lord Jesus Christ ever and forever.
Beautiful
I was in St. Peter's back in the 1980s, but I remember it differently. I recall the Pieta being much closer to ground level when I was there, and I also seem to remember St. Peter's tomb being accessible to the public, not down in a restricted lower level. Perhaps it's just faulty memory, or perhaps they've made changes.
Wow
💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕2:23 MY JESUS, MY GOD💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I agree with Norah! It's so overwhelmingly Beautiful you get misty eyes.
I just love her so much. She is so decent. I mean on top of it all.
During my 3 visits over the years, there's no long lines to see either the Pieta or touching the foot. I suppose is the basilica are open long hours. Anyone can see what was shown here, except the tomb of st Peter downstairs.
The most stunning thing was that Michelle Angelo finished the Pieta when he was 24! I always admire Angello more than da Vinci's because of the numbers of incredible art he produced in his life time!
I got very emotional to, plus when I visited Mary 's final resting chapel, a tiny cottage on a hill in central Turkey near Ephesus.
Its weird that she hug the priest, im not sure if that's the right thing to do.
❤ beautiful.
i've been there, for artistic reasons not religious. In person it feels smaller and more intimate than the wide angle lens of the tv news camera.
She is usually a great journalist. Here it feels she could have prepared a lot more. It was a missed opportunity for a fantastic video.
She certainly misunderstood the teaching regarding St Peter holding the Keys of Heaven.
She certainly 'wowed' a lot...
Where’s the rest?
Thanks for the video. It's magnificent
The Blessed Mother holding her son, our Savior! Praise be you Lord Jesus Christ! The Catholic Church IS THE CHURCH STARTED BY CHRIST! There is no other!
Actually, no. Paul and Peter had MUCH more to do with starting the Church than Jesus did. His role was essentially to serve as the focal point for a cult of personality which EVENTUALLY became an organized church (thanks in large part to Paul, Peter and a few others).
@@pcbacklash_3261 please do your due diligence. Read the church fathers. Thank you
@@KW-mz4pn I didn't say they were the ONLY ones who had anything to do with starting the church. But without those two, I think it's safe to say it never would have been more than a localized Jewish cult.
Yes, the teachings of Christ are the foundation of the faith.
@@keithgiblin2636 The teachings of Jesus (he was NEVER a "christ") _are_ certainly the "foundation" of the faith. Nobody's disputing that. But he simply wasn't a key figure in the founding of the church.
Well shot, especially not following the "news format" standards!
❤❤❤❤
May your NET be filled with ❤❤❤
❤
You were so lucky.
Can someone tell me why do I see some alien looking toes on right foot of the statue?At 1:19 into the video
🙏🏼💖✨
It is the tomb of stPeter but his holy body is not there. There are other saints whose bodies are in this church. These are one of the greatest saints, two Apostles and others.
The key he holds is the key to the kingdom. Isaiah 22, Matt 16. He was Christ the king’s first “Al Habayit”.

My church is planning a pilgrimage and here is one of the stops! I pray to God I’m able to go, but His will be done! 🥳

🙂🕺❤💃🙂
what is oh my gosh that she said?
1:42 I thought it was because Jesus said, "I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven..." (Matthew 16:19 / NIV)
Mathew 16:18
Jesus says: "Even if some dishonest man, for an impure end, made bones appear as Peter's bones, or covertly, according to your indications on the subsequent depositions of Peter, discovered the catacomb niche of Peter, took the remains there and brought them to St. Peter's saying that they were there, to oppress My spokesman (Valtorta) and deceive My Vicar and the whole world, I-Truth here say that this action would be deception that God condemns. Peter is where you know. Every other remnant is not Peter's." [Attached were the clippings of two short newspaper articles on the discovery of St. Peter's tomb]
St. Peter: "I speak to tell you this. The world is increasingly corrupt .... Much of the Church is also decadent, having, if not forgotten, neglected what the Divine Master and Founder of the Church, of whom He elected me His first Pontiff, had taught His successors .... Everything is too guilty for the relic of relics, the second only to those that belong to Jesus and Mary, the greater than that of all the saints, to be exposed, yes, to the veneration of true Christians, but also to the danger of profanation and dispersion on the part of anti-Christians. If the world does not change .... the hour will never arise when the remains of the "Stone on which Christ built His Church" will be drawn, from the darkness where they are, in the light of worship, from neglect, because I am hidden, to the adoration of the faithful. The discovery of my true body, its translation to the Basilica dedicated to me, the true heart of Christianity, to be erected on the place where I heroically confessed my faithful love for Christ, Mother Church of all Catholic Churches, would truly be an overflowing gift of grace. But to have it, it is necessary to give true heroic love to Jesus and Mary, to the whole Church.” Peter, being, indeed appearing as a glorified body, is much more beautiful than he was, but also much sadder than he was alive.
If you believe in Christ, you might want to be more careful to not misattribute quotes to Him that He never said.
Norah: before your interview with the Pope, did you even read his document?
“That’s a big change.” No, no it wasn’t. Hopefully your preparation is better the next go around.
Αγαπητέ Ποντίφικα με αυτή την κοπέλα είχα επανειλημμένες μυστικιστικές εμπειρίες και ήταν μάλιστα το πρώτο μου εκδηλωμένο ερωτικό σκίρτημα το καλοκαίρι μεταξύ της 3ης Γυμνασίου και 1ης Λυκείου. Τη λένε Ιωάννα (Γιάννα) Κρόκου. Αν υπάρχει Πόντιος Πιλάτος θηλέων προστατεύστε την. Γιάννης Α.
Sorry, but the keys are not keys to “try to find a solution,” but are the “keys [given from Christ Jesus himself] to the kingdom of heaven” (Matt. 16:19).
My life long dream. Maybe in my afterlife.
🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love how if it were me I’d trash everything in there😂
Like what’s so special? It’s like a glorified Star Wars, fought over and civilizations razed
Why would you trash everything? Why do the personal beliefs held by other people trigger you so much?
Threatening violence? Really? Rethink your intuitions
And you're the reason that public isn't allowed there.
That’s what the bulletproof glass is for, some people are just descendants of the Vandals.
That is why people only can see it behind bulletproof glass
Im sorry but that pieta jesus foot is not jewish it italian that flat type
I dont have a clue what michael Angelo had in mind?
It's true that to see all this in person, especially Michelangelo's Pieta, is incredibly breathtaking but the apostle Peter would be the first to tell everyone he was not to be worshiped.
We don’t “worship” St. Peter. We venerate him. Learn the difference.
Venus and Adonis are lovely.
No Catholic worships anyone but the Trinity.
Why is the public not allowed in there ? One of the many nauseating rules of the catholic church ! ! I used to be a catholic by the way , do not have time to count the reasons I left ! ! ! !
I’m so sorry to hear that.
You mean in front of the pietà? Because of Laslzo Toth vandalizing it in 1972 and on top of that gaining fame for doing it, if the glass room was removed someone would vandalize it again with an hammer.
@@ad_astra468 Have security guards present at all times , If Jesus was in charge of the church today he would do almost everything different than the way it is taken care of today starting by eliminating all the luxury and expensive properties the church owns and feed the people starving to death around the world with the money ! ! ! !
Show the peeps hpw The Shroud of Turin Is Real,
and why it is not in the Vatican.
is the shroud authenticated by the Vatican? Also the crown of thorns is not at the vatical it's at Norte Dame. Not sure about the true cross wood or the bone fragment I think that was on loan by the Vatican. Not of St. Peter but another apostle.
Cause it isn't real.
Financial assistance please❤❤❤❤❤❤
So that’s where all the tithes go!!!!
🕊Beautiful St. Peter's
🕊Basilica in 🕍 🙏🏽
🕊Vatican City
replace every honor view with loving fertile yoga.
Regular Catholics should be able to get the chance for these sorts of tours too.
Anyone can see all of the basilica except st Peter tomb downstairs. I think this special tour was done before the opening hours. I recalled the church close at 6pm daily, pilgrims can check back pack for free at the lockers areas, bathroom are free.
@@___beyondhorizon4664 But what about the Pieta. Very few people are allowed to see it up close like that.
Are you insane?
Protestors glue themselves to priceless art. What would they do to these relics?
@@benedictchinweuba5820 The Pieta can be seen 15 yards away. It's protected now because someone purposely damaged it in 1972.
The entire concept of the Catholic church is built upon hierarchy, not equality.
I'd rather hear Christopher Hitchens opinion
Evil is what Evil does!!
Sell it all and pay the survivors of abuse at the hands of the church.
They are in heaven now. this church built by selling indulgences proves that God makes good out of anything, even the bad.
You first….
@@Nicole32301 I didn't rape any children and then systematically cover it up for decades
How much should be paid those abused to wash the sin ? Let's hear the expert of aethic & moral ? And sell it all to whom?! And how the buyer can take home what he paid for?? And what about the abuses made by other religious confessions, the protestant f.i., shouldn't pay themselves too ? 😅
There will always be abusers - especially when there is no higher thinking and nothing of beauty; people are people...
Who cares?? All that glitter and fancy stuff will not grant them access into heaven. Corruption is rampant in that place. If you read your Bible!! You will understand what GOD said to the rich young ruler. Wake up ⬆️ people GOD IS COMING BACK TO JUDGE US ALL.
A church built on nonsense, much like too many CZcams comments.
Millions of people care!! The glitter has been passed down from centuries of artistry and true devotion past and present. Recognize that only a few out of millions caused the corruptions and God will judge those who have caused harm to the many. Put your bitterness away and realize that this fancy stuff (as you call it) are symbols of love and devotion that many artists have left us in St. Peters Basilica. I pray for you because a lot of people care!! you are the one who should read the Bible.
You must be more compassionate for the church that Jesus and the Apostles through the Holy Spirit has left for us all.
Read your Gospel and ridd off all your arrogance and your sins and you'll learn what Jesus said about the rich and the poor. Protestants worship the pagan god ,the god money and capitalism !!
