The "miraculous" spiral staircase refers to the Loretto Chapel spiral staircase in [[Santa Fe]], [[New Mexico]], built without any support or even nails, an which does two full turns to reach 20 feet high to a [[choir]] loft.  Its builder was an unknown visitor to the Chapel around 1880, who worked without pay and apparently used spruce wood not common to the area.

This spiral staircase is analogous to the [[Epistles to the Hebrews]], which is written in perfect, magnificent [[Greek]] by an unknown author.  Today the spiral staircase is a marvel of carpentry that would be exceedingly difficult to match even with the use of modern equipment, let alone with merely pegs and glue by a single carpenter in 1880.

This spectacular spiral staircase is a central attraction for visitors to Santa Fe today, and the location of special events such as weddings.
