This priest is usually a Franciscan by virtue of the existing links between the two Orders."

Overall: Approving ALT3 and ALT5 since they seem the most interesting. The article looks really great, nice job! The sources all look good, AGF on the Italian translation but it seems right. Minor edit: I removed Israel from ALT5 because it doesn't seem necessary to specify which Nazareth. BuySomeApples (talk) 20:42, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
