The tomb of the Apostle Paul was allegedly discovered a couple of years ago and now there are reports that Pope Benedict XVI has given permission for the tomb to be opened. Apparently an endoscopic probe will be put through a hole in the tomb in order to transmit images. There doesn’t seem to be much online about this yet, but you can see this blog and WorldNetDaily for more.
