Folks, welcome back.

I continue my conversation with Dr. Eugenia Constantino, or as it's properly pronounced, Eviania Constantino, or closer to that.

Dr. Eugenia Constantino, you are the author most recently of this book, The Crucifixion

of the King of Glory, The Amazing History and Sublime Mystery of the Passion.

So what else will we find in this book that we ought to know?

Well, I think you're going to find it very fascinating. Just for example, the description of the

temple. And so this was something that, again, we've been hearing about the temple as Christians

growing up, we hear about Jesus in the temple. But what the temple was really like, what went on there,

why Jesus cleans the temple, this sort of thing is really important because what we find

is that the important people who are central to the trial and crucifixion of Christ are the chief priests.

And the level of corruption among the chief priests and the high priest in first century

Judaism is astonishing. And again, all of this information I got from Jewish sources. We have

Jewish sources that talk about the corruption and also the other aspects of temple worship that is quite fascinating.

And the book describes the temple.

What was it really like?

If you were to go there, what would you have seen?

Where did you find?

Where did you?
