The Passion
Seven days that remade the world
Twelve episodes on the final week of Jesus of Nazareth in Jerusalem. Palm Sunday to Easter morning. From the donkey's entry to the rolled-back stone. Each hour reconstructed from the sources — the four Gospels, Tacitus, Flavius Josephus, Philo of Alexandria — cross-checked against modern archaeology: the Pilate Stone found at Caesarea, the Caiaphas ossuary, the only crucifixion victim ever recovered by archaeologists. The story told in historical detail and in reverent silence.
