God Will Get You for That
Title: “Jesus of Nazareth: Holy Week: From the Entrance Into Jerusalem To The Resurrection”
Author: Pope Benedict XVI
Rank: 23
Blurb: “Benedict brings to his study the vast learning of a brilliant scholar, the passionate searching of a great mind, and the deep compassion of a pastor’s heart.”
Review: “While some reviews have focused on the fact that Benedict is more willing to point the blame of the Resurrection at Pilate and the Romans instead of the Jews, there are other moments of ecumenism from the Holy Father.”
