A perfect guide to the Passion for beginners and for those who want things explained in a short and deep way. The bibliography and the resources at the end of the book are excellent

Very good. It highlights for us Jesus Christ in human form who suffered, shed blood, died on the Cross, was buried and rose again.
Jesus became our Savior, our Redeemer.
Jesus Christ is Divine, the Trinity: God the Father, God the Son And The Holy Spirit.

Some very good points, some obvious points, and the assertion that if you are any denomination but Catholic you are a heretic.

Good question and answer format book about the movie “The Passion of Christ “. Helps to answer fundamental Catholic questions and encourage a conversation about the life of Christ and His Passion.

A very detailed review of the film and the historical event from a Roman Catholic perspective. Many of the points made in the book are simply reflections of modern Catholic belief based on archaeology, Tradition and ancient and modern extra-Biblical sources. It is very well done.
