Summary

Anne Catherine Emmerich was born in Germany in 1774. As a child she believed that angels, saints, and the Holy Family visited and talked with her as she worked in the fields. At twenty-four, she had her first mystic vision of the sufferings of Christ, accompanied by stigmata and bleeding as if from the crown of thorns. At twenty-nine, she became an Augustinian nun and continued to have visions and stigmata. In her visions, she recounted scenes from the life of Christ, which she seemed to have witnessed. These phenomena brought her fame and investigation by both science and the Church.

This book was one of the sources for Mel Gibson's motion picture, The Passion of the Christ.

Well read

narration was clear and at a good pace, occasionally unsure whether the words being read were that of Emmerich or the additional notes of the author

Fascinating details of Our Lord's Passion

The visions of Blessed Emmerich provides a rich and detailed account of events before during and after the first way of the cross.
The narrator spoke a little too fast at times, nevertheless gave a moving account.

Wonderfully vivid and fluently read

A powerfully imaginative meditation on Our Lord's Passion, Death and Resurrection. It's easy to see why this book inspired the making of The Passion of the Christ movie. Biblical characters are described vividly in these reflections on the Passion as well as the supernatural happenings that accompanied the historical events described. The performance of the reader was something I had to get used to but, in the end, really appreciated because it was almost conversational and not stilted in any way.
