The Holy Grail
What exactly is the Holy Grail? Is it the cup Jesus drank from at the last supper? The chalice used to catch Jesus blood when he died on the cross. The word grail comes from the Latin word gradalis meaning a flat dish or shallow vessel. Josh follows its trail from the Holy Land to French castles and even Nazi history when Hitler had people looking for the grail to unite his secret society of knights.
