General Description:

Through Gospel citations, theological reflection and the experience of the average Christian, the author leads us through the Passion of Our Lord Jesus, scene by scene, to reveal the profound significance of some easily overlooked details in the drama of our salvation. Beginning with the Last Supper, through the Agony in the Garden, to the trial before Annas and Caiaphas and the trial before Pontius Pilate and Herod, to the carrying of the Cross and his death on Calvary, and finally to his Resurrection three days later, Jesus manifested the love of God in a way that overturned all the false judgments that had been made against him and gave us an example to follow. Since love is revealed through the Cross, we find it easier to focus on the suffering and hence miss the glory that it likewise holds for those who love God and neighbor to the very end. It is impossible to meditate on these passages from Sacred Scripture without being profoundly moved and motivated to live the love we find in them.
