The Passion in its first-century context

Eugenia Scarvelis Constantinou examines the Crucifixion and Resurrection through the historical and religious context of the first century, connecting that setting with the events’ significance in Christian salvation. The book brings modern scholarship into conversation with an interpretation the description identifies as faithful to Orthodox Tradition. Its subject is both contextual and theological: understanding the Passion as an event situated in its own time, while considering its meaning for Christians today.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults interested in the historical context of the Passion narratives
  • Readers seeking New Testament commentary informed by Orthodox Tradition
  • Those exploring Christian theology and the significance of the Crucifixion and Resurrection

Book overview

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 readers 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.
