Summary: Review from the Publisher
Comment: This extraordinary work contains a day-by-day and frequently hour-by-hour account of the three years of the Public Life of Christ, actually witnessed in vision by one of the greatest mystics of the 18th century. Besides dealing with the most profound mysteries of Judaism and Christianity, the narration includes a complete life of the Blessed Mother and extensive biographies of Noah, Abraham, the ancestors of the Holy Family, John the Baptist, the Apostles, Mary Magdelene, Judas and many intimate revelations about St. Joseph, St. Anne, St. Joachim and other relatives of Our Lord. Includes an account on the Creation of the World (Astounding!) as well as a wealth of information regarding the culture, customs, architecture, geography and even the weather conditions of ancient Palestine. Describes events from the Apostle's early missionary work, plus the death of the Blessed Mother. A treasure trove of information obtainable from no other source. Seems an act of God that these visions were permitted and recorded. The tremendous detail of these unusual volumes, along with the saintly, dignified style with which the story is related, will truly inspire the reader and bring him rich spiritual rewards. "From our own deep conviction of the great advantage to be derived from the pious perusal of the work . . . we do not hesitate in its approval to add our signature " . . . James Cardinal Gibbons.

Summary: Yes, it's Apocryphal but...
Comment: Please don't get fooled by some of the "reviews" of this book you see here. To begin with their concept of "solo sciptura" is inherently flawed. The scriptures are selected texts which were deemed by the Catholic Church to be divine. Yes the same church that is condemed by the very people shaking their "solo sciptura" at you. The bible has been translated, re-written compliled..etc first by The Church and then by others for 2000 years. The Chruch itself rejects "solo scriptura" (meaning faith by scripture alone) acknowleging the 4 Gospels as being devine writings, however the traditions that are practiced in all churches, are also considered a part of the faith.

That having been said, yes these books are apocrphal, meaning outside the scriptures. Much of Christian tradition is based on apocrypha. If seeing the Passion deepend your faith, then so will the Books by Catherine Emmerich. The author notes that "only the Gospel is Gospel." However if a clearer picutre of the events in the bible as told by someone who appears to have had visions of the events can help you envision them for yourself what is the sin there. Too call this a "devils" trick is both stupid and self serving. IF the movie the Passion was a "devils" trick because much of the story is outside the words of the bible, then this book is too, because it's far more touching than the movie. If you don't think so, then these books are for you. If do think so, then fine..stay away from Catherine, St. Bridget, and Mary Agreba, and others that, IMO were given divine gifts in order for the rest of us to be helped to strengten our faith.

The books by Catherine are facinating and well written. Desciptions such as those in the Garden are incredible and infitely more touching than the movie. So much is missed in the movie that the book is must reading before, during, or after seeing it. Family trees are included that help to explain much of the confusion in the Bible, such as Joesph's lineage from David, Job, Abraham, St.Anne and more. Nothing you read in the Bible is not in here, but so much of what you read is not in the Bible and supports completely what is in there. Some of it is backed up by other Apocrypha, some contradicts it. I am sure that anyone that truly is interested in their Christian faith, and in their true love and undestanding of the Bible will be deeply touched. Read it.

Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: This may be, one of the most outstanding books I've ever read. The visions of a Venerable noun, a woman which life was full of suffering and misunderstanding, she has the stigmata and suffered great pains. Some kind of sickness put her on bed for many years; in the last part of her life, and for several months, she was only fed with the Holy Communion, as she was unable to receive any other kind of food. Nevertheless, she wrote one of the most extraordinary revelations, a book that complements the Holy Gospel, and bring us near Jesus, the Apostles, the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, etc.
This great work is a must for Catholics and Christians a like, that may want to extend their knowledge of the times of Christ and His life, the Church, the Holy Mass, Heaven and hell and the times of old Palestine. Also the creation of the world is depicted, the Angels, etc.
Her Book the "The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ", was the inspiration for Mel Gibson's movie "The Passion of the Christ".
