SOUND BITES FROM "THE PASSION"

The Betrayer

(As Jesus was eating at the table with his 12 disciples, he said "Amen I say to you one of you will betray me." They began each to say "Is it I Lord?" ----- and Judas, who betrayed him said, "Is it I, Rabbi?")

Sweating Blood

(While Jesus was kneeling down on Mount of Olives he began to pray. "Father, if thou art willing, remove this cup from me; yet not my will but thine be done." And his sweat became as drops of blood running down upon the ground.)

Behold The Man

(Pilate again went outside and said to them. "Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no guilt in him." Jesus came forth wearing the crown of thorns and the purple cloak. Pilate said to them "Behold, the Man". Then the chief priest and attendants saw him, and they cried out saying "Crucify him! Crucify him!".)

Crucifixion

(When they came to the place called the Skull they crucified him. Jesus said "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."-----the sun was darkened. Jesus cried out with a loud voice and said, "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.")

Eli, Eli

(Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. Jesus cried out with a loud voice saying, "Eli, Eli, lemasabacthani," that is "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?")

On The Third Day

(The angel spoke to the women. "Do not be afraid; for I know that you seek Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen----")
