A shroud of Turin question.?

John 19:40, "Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in STRIPS OF LINEN. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs."

John 20:5-7, "He bent over and looked in at the STRIPS OF LINEN lying there but did not go in. Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the STRIPS OF LINEN lying there, as well as THE CLOTH THAT HAD BEEN WRAPPED AROUND JESUS' HEAD. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen."

My question is "Where does the shroud enter the scene?"

Ironically, even if they claim that the Shroud of Turin matches the description of a "strip" of linen (it doesn't), they still miss the plural which existed in the original.
AND they miss that bit about a separate cloth being wrapped around the head. Separate, not part of the other wrappings.

The shroud of Turin was carbon 14 dated and found to be only 700 years old. It could not be the real one used by Jesus.

I know, it's odd, but if you believe the shroud is real you have to believe that the Bible is wrong.

The "shroud of turin" is a fraud. It is more garbage from catholicism.
