The Kuvukliya chapel above the cave, in which the apostles left the lifeless body of their Teacher more than two thousand years ago, is sealed with a wax seal, and there is no earthly fire left at the Holy Sepulchre. Then the Holy Fire descends in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. It does not burn and notifies that the end of the world is not yet in sight.
