The Poem of the Man-God, Vol. Five

had to return it already had copy love it

Maria Valtorta goes into such life-like detail that Hollywood could make a film of this without having to write a script. It is all there--word for word.

This is the climax to a set of 5 books on the life of Jesus Christ by a visionary author who has captured the personalities and the culture of the times of Israel during the roman occupation of 2000 years ago. I recommend that you read the previous 4 books before taking this one on. I find it very interesting and humbling to be able to read in detail about the death and resurection of our Lord Jesus. The Apostles and his followers who were part of this event are brought to life with astonishing detail.. Their characters and behavor will help you understand the part they played in this drama. There are many subplots and intrigues leading up to the betrayal and cruxifiction. The religious enemies who are from the temple and the romans occupiers are also brought to bear with their motives in order to give the story it's color and suspense. This is not light hearted reading but for Christians who want to journey with the Blessed Virgin (who becomes much more involved at this point) and her Son our Lord through these tumultuous times, I do not believe you will find a better source of material that will explain and give greater meaning the the Bible.

The book arrived on time and well packaged. I am finishing up Volume 3 and love the story. This is a definite must read for all of those who want to know detailed truths about the Man-God, what His message is and all of the facts surrounding His amazing though very brief journey on this planet.

I have been very pleased with all the Volumes of Maria Valtorta " The Poem of the Man-God" that I have purchased through Amazon. Thank you for making these books available to me

Excellent
