The Passion of Christ

A Paraphrase of Selected Passages from the Gospels.

This work is a paraphrase of selected passages from the four Gospels of Jesus Christ. The passages record the events of the last week of the ministry of Jesus on earth. The passages are from the King James Version. The language was updated, and the events were placed in what I believe to be the chronological order. I do not say this is the exact order in which the events occurred, but only the order suggested to me by my studying of the text.

The last week of Jesus’ ministry on earth is known as Passion week. The events of this week are called the Passion of Christ. He had two passions, the first was on the cross dying for the sins of the world. This led to His second passion the establishment of the Kingdom of GOD as prophesied by the Prophet Daniel.

The events of this week are very instructive to the Christians because the recorded events of the seven days portray Jesus as the glorious Redeemer and Saviour of the world. The events cover the period from Palm Sunday to Resurrection morning. In reading the events we must remember the reason He came into the world.
