The Crucifixion of the King of Glory: The Amazing History and Sublime Mystery of the Passion

By: Eugenia Scarvelis Constantinou PhD

Narrated by: Eugenia Scarvelis Constantinou

The crucifixion and resurrection of Christ are central events in our salvation. Yet few Christians have a good grasp of the first-century historical and religious context in which the crucifixion took place, nor of its true significance for the people of that time - and hence for our time as well. Biblical scholar and attorney Dr. Jeannie Constantinou puts modern listeners in the center of the events of Christ's Passion, bringing the best of modern scholarship to bear while keeping her interpretation faithful in every particular to the Orthodox tradition.

Fantastic!

I really appreciated listening to this very important work by the author… It was great preparation for Holy week

EXCELLENT!

Dr. Constantinou continues to show us why she is such a wonderful source that people across the globe have come to trust in matters regarding the Christian faith.

To list all of the reasons why this book is such a substantial work would take more words than most would want to read. Suffice it to say, this is a book I have now listened to for the second year in a row (a Pascha/Easter tradition I’m very glad to have started), and I also own a digital copy for highlighting and sharing quotes. It is a book I plan on gifting to folks I’ve been blessed to sponsor into the Holy Orthodox Church, and I highly recommend it to all for reading anytime of the year.

Excellent and in depth

I highly recommend this book for its background studies, and unique and site into the crucifixion of our Lord.
There are some theological points I would take issue with, but overall, what a helpful study! Very easy to listen to and from what I can tell very well researched.
From what I heard on an interview, the author is planning to also do a similar book on the resurrection and the birth of Christ. I look forward to these as well.

Excellent

Another wonderful book by Dr. Constantinou. Her writing has done so much for my understanding of and conversion to Orthodoxy.

wonderful book by wonderful author!

This is the first book I've read by the author and found it fascinating the amount of detail she goes into during Holy Week in that 1st century! We'll definitely be buying more!
