Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a narrative poem summarizing the final week of Jesus Christ's life as he traveled to Jerusalem. It begins with his arrival to the exultation of his followers on what will become known as Palm Sunday. The narrative incorporates an element of drama. Each of the 15 separate sections are assigned a heading, many of which are directly lifted from the scriptures, that indicate a change of time and setting, or a theme being explored. The book's author draws from the Gospels to tell the story of Jesus' life, his teachings, and the social and political milieu of first-century Judea. As the book progresses, the daily events of the week become more significant until we reach the climax of Jesus' arrest and crucifixion on Good Friday, and the subsequent events of his resurrection on Easter. The book is grounded in the teachings of Jesus and the author explores the significance of passion, sacrifice, faith, and the human struggle against the forces of evil. It is an exploration of the complexities of human nature, and the ultimate triumph of faith. The book is at once an inspiring narrative and a deeper exploration of the life of one of history's most influential figures.
