Portrait of the Passion

The Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary are presented in this awe-inspiring pictorial on the Passion and Death of Our Lord which will touch you to the depths of your heart, increase your awareness of the malice of sin, and intensify your love for Christ our Redeemer. Every conceivable suffering of Jesus is vividly portrayed in 80 magnificent pictures. Each page is a meditation of its own and is accompanied by both the New Testament narrative and its corresponding prophecy in the Old Testament which are taken from the Douay-Rheims Bible. From the garden of Gethsemane to Golgotha, everything from the denial of Peter to the very position of the nails is brought to the readers attention. "Jesus is loved by few, because few consider the pains He suffered for us; but he who frequently considers them cannot live without loving Jesus," says St. Alphonsus Liguori in the introduction.
