Dalton explains how the Shroud became central to his academic and pastoral mission. The conversation explores Jewish burial customs, Gospel testimony, and forensic details found on the Shroud. Dalton highlights John’s Gospel and the discovery of the collapsed linen cloths at the tomb. These details challenge explanations of theft or fabrication.
