I have for a long time been asked, but of late with more eagerness, to collect together in one book the results of my anatomical experiment of my archaeological and scriptural researches, finally of my reflections on the passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Theologians can imagine and describe to us the moral sufferings, which formed part of the savior's passion, beginning with those in the agony of Gethsemani, when He was overwhelmed with the weight of the sins of the world, and ending with His abandonment by the Father, which drew from Him the cry on the cross.
