And What Would Ever Possess Paul To Compare The Death Of Christ To The Love Of A Husband For His Wife? If You Would Have Been At The Crucifixion, With Jesus Hanging There Dying, Is That How You Would Have Described It? How Could A First-Century Jew Like Paul, Who Knew How Brutal Roman Crucifixions Were, Have Ever Compared The Execution Of Jesus To A Wedding? And Why Does He Refer To This As The Great Mystery (Ephesians 5:32)? As Pitre Shows, The Key To Unlocking This Mystery Can Be Found By Going Back To Jewish Scripture And Tradition And Seeing The Entire History Of Salvation, From Mount Sinai To Mount Calvary, As A Divine Love Story Between Creator And Creature, Between God And Israel, Between Christ And His Bride--A Story That Comes To Its Climax On The Wood Of A Roman Cross In The Pages Of Jesus The Bridegroom, Dozens Of Familiar Passages In The Bible--The Exodus, The Song Of Songs, The Wedding At Cana, The Woman At The Well, The Last Supper, The Crucifixion, And Even The Second Coming At The End Of Time--Are Suddenly Transformed Before Our Eyes Indeed, When Seen In The Light Of Jewish Scripture And Tradition, The Life Of Christ Is Nothing Less Than The Greatest Love Story Ever Told Binding:Paperback, PaperbackPublisher:IMAGE BOOKSPublication Date:2018-02-13Weight:0.3 lbsDimensions:0.7'' H x 7.9'' L x 5.1'' WNumber of Pages:224Language:English
