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.

I recently listened to the audible version of this during my commute to and from work. My only regret was that my work was not farther away so I could listen for a longer time.

This book was captivating. The historical context behind the crucifixion was riveting, and made the mystery of the Crucifixion so much more awe-inspiring, so much more devastating, and yet so much more glorious in its victory in the Resurrection. It's clear that so many details (the "who's who") is taken for granted when we read this passages every year during Holy Week, so I really appreciated all of the research that was put in to describe who Caiaphas was, who the Sanhedrin were, etc. I also really appreciated that some phrases were provided in the Greek to further clarify the discourses that occurred during the time of Christ's Passion. If I had to point out one thing that I wish was further expanded, it would be the discussion on the Right-Hand Thief.

For those "speed listeners," I listened to the Audible audiobook at 1.6x speed and was able to keep up.

For sure, I will be purchasing a physical copy of this book so I can annotate it for Holy Week next year. Look forward to more works by this wonderful author.

Amazing

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!

wonderful book by wonderful author!

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!

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 and in depth

Dr. Jeannie is a force. You will never look at the Passion of Christ the same.

An absolutely necessary read for every Christian.

The author reads slow, so play at 1.5 speed. This is the best historical and theological presentation of the crucifixion of Jesus. This will become a classic!

Wonderful!

The Crucifixion Of The King Of Glory by Eugenia Scarvelis Constantinou, PHD


I was given an audible copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. The book is long, about 15 hours on audible and pretty academic. It’s not an easy weekend read, in my opinion. But, I would recommend it to anyone wanting to get a better understanding of the cross or someone looking for a good Lenten reading.
The first section of the book was a bit challenging for me to get through as it was mostly focused on the history of the Jewish customs. But, it was necessary to lay the ground work so I encourage you to press on if you find yourself struggling.
The last section of the book walks you through every step Jesus went through from the last supper on. It was great to read as we were approaching Holy Week in the church. I feel like I will now have a greater understanding than ever before as I attending the services. Dr. Jeannie went to great lengths to take you through the process and explain actions of the people around him. I found my heart aching so many times as she explained the horror and pain Jesus accepted for us. He laid down his life for us, it wasn’t taken from him. How moving this is! This quote from Augustine that Dr. Jeanie quoted gave me chills,“While Christ, the second Adam was asleep on the cross, his bride, the church was formed from his side. “
I HIGHLY recommend reading this book during lent and especially as you draw closer to Holy Week and ultimately Pascha. 10/10

“While Christ, the second Adam was asleep on the cross, his bride, the church was formed from his side. “
