| 基督教逐渐地融入罗马（逐渐罗马化）；而罗马城也开始升起基督信仰。但要复兴罗马，使之成为基督教的神圣之城，那它还必须同基督教第一圣城（指耶路撒冷）来个交接，把这种神圣性转移到罗马来。君士坦丁于是派遣他的母亲海伦娜到耶路撒冷朝圣。海伦娜归来之时，带着一笔宝贵的基督教遗物。我马上就要亲眼目睹这些遗物当中意义最为重大的珍宝。海伦娜皇后找到的最最不凡的物品之一便是——神圣阶梯(Scala Sancta)。通常认为这阶梯是来自耶路撒冷的本丢彼拉多(Pontius Pilate)宫殿。耶稣在被判处死刑后，就沿着这些台阶往下走。不同于异教信仰中遥不可及的神灵，基督教的上帝有个儿子；并且他将自己的独子当作祭品，令之为人类舍身。因此，但凡基督（上帝的儿子耶稣）触碰过的，他的信徒们也想触摸看看。数个世纪以来，朝圣者跪着爬上这些台阶以表虔诚，为的是更加靠近基督，同时铭记他遭受的苦难。 Pontius Pilate：钉死耶稣的古代罗马的犹太总督。 |
