The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ

Home > Books & Media >

The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ is based on the detailed visions of Our Lord’s passion and death as seen by Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich (1774-1824), a German Augustinian nun, and recorded by Clemens Brentano, a prominent literary figure of the day. This book has been inspiring thousands since it first appeared in 1833; it is one of the most used texts for Lenten devotion, and most notably, it was the inspiration for Mel Gibson’s film The Passion of the Christ.

This newly-bound leatherette edition, with gilded pages, a ribbon marker, and burnishing and gold foiling on the cover, is truly worthy of its contents and will withstand long, devoted use.

The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ recounts with incredible precision the horrendous sufferings undergone by our Savior in His sacrificial act of Redemption. Its illuminative description of Mary’s participation in the sufferings of her Son gives the reader a poignant understanding of why Our Lady is often called our “Co-Redemptrix” and “Queen of Martyrs.” The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ is a singular book that leaves a lasting impression of the terrible agony of Our Lord, of His infinite love for us that motivated His suffering, and how His passion and death were brought on by each person’s sins. Here is a book that gives one a holy conviction just by reading it. Here is a book that will melt a heart of stone!
