The Objects of the Passion
The Objects of the Passion, and What Each One Shows of Christ
The story of the cross is told through ordinary objects made unforgettable: thirty coins, a basin and a towel, a cup, a crown twisted from thorns, a robe without a seam, a wooden beam, iron nails, a soldier's spear, folded linen, and a rolled stone. Each thing carries meaning. Each page below takes one object, shows its part in the Passion, and what it reveals about the One at the center of it all.
