De: Ross Thompson

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A powerful work of biblical fiction that brings to life the most pivotal three days in human history through the eyes of those who witnessed them.

When darkness falls over Jerusalem at the sixth hour, centurion Marcus and a diverse cast of witnesses find themselves at the center of events that will shake the foundations of the world. From the moment Jesus cries out "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" to the earthquake that splits rocks and tears the temple veil, from the opening of graves, to the rising of the dead, this narrative explores the crucifixion and resurrection from multiple perspectives.

Follow Marcus, the Roman centurion who must reconcile his duty to Rome with the truth he witnesses at the cross. Walk with Sarah, a woman healed by Jesus, as she maintains vigil through the darkness and discovers hope in an empty tomb. Experience the internal conflict of Tobias, a temple scribe who helped condemn an innocent man and must grapple with the consequences. Journey with Cassius, a young soldier transformed from executioner to believer by the power of forgiveness.

Through their interwoven stories, 'The Jerusalem Incident' illuminates the human drama behind the cosmic battle between death and life, despair and hope, darkness and light. Based on the biblical accounts in Matthew and the other Gospels, this book imagines how ordinary people might have experienced and processed the most extraordinary events ever witnessed.

From the supernatural darkness that covered the land to the risen righteous walking through Jerusalem, from the tearing of the temple veil to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, this is the story of how death was defeated and how witnesses to that defeat changed the course of human history.
