"This is a book about the most dramatic day in the history of the world, the day on which Jesus of Nazareth died. It opens at 6 P.M.—the beginning of the Hebrew day—with Jesus and ten of the apostles coming through the pass between the Mount of Olives and the Mount of Offense en route to Jerusalem and the Last Supper. It closes at 4 P.M. the following afternoon, when Jesus was taken down from the cross. . . . The fundamental research was done a long time ago by four fine journalists: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The rest has been added in bits and pieces from many men whose names span the centuries."—from the Foreword
Tracing the route from Gethsemane to Golgotha, acclaimed author Jim Bishop provides a “you are there” account of Jesus’s last hours. The Day Christ Died, while backed by impeccable scholarly research, is also a fascinating account of the most dramatic day in the history of the world.
The story begins at 6:00 PM, the beginning of the Hebrew day, with Jesus and ten of the Apostles coming through the pass between the Mount of Olives and the Mount of Offense en route to Jerusalem and the Last Supper. It closes at 4pm the following afternoon, when Jesus was taken down from the cross. What happened in between, as expertly told by Bishop, has altered the course of history for the past two millennia. Jim Bishop (1907-1987) was the originator of “The Day” style of journalism. He was author of more than a dozen books, including The Day Lincoln Was Shot and The Day Christ Died. Bishop worked for the Daily Mirror, Collier’s and Catholic Digest, and was founding editor of Gold Medal Books. He also wrote a syndicated newspaper column for King Features Syndicate. “Intensely dramatic . . . makes one feel that the ‘greatest story ever told’ was here told for the first time.” -Kirkus ReviewYou may also like
