| Abstract: | Rabat has numerous relics of the devotion towards the Passion of Our Lord. John Bezzina calls it “Malta’s cradle of Christianity.” The first relic of the Good Friday devotio goes back to the late, Roman-Early Byzantine period, in the crypt of l-Abatija tad-Dejr, limits of Rabat. There is an affresco in the apse representing the Crucifiction. |
