Day 23 The bitterness of Christ's Passion

In this episode we conclude our reading and discussion of Article Four in the Catechism "He suffered died and was buried." We focus spefically on the words of the Catechism as they concern themselves with the bitterness of the passion of Christ. Christ's suffering exceeded the suffering of any man. We see that the Catechism follows the inspiration of St Thomas Aquinas in this treatment of the passion of Christ in Part III of the Summa Theologica- particularly in questions 46-48. In this episode we read the replies of both articles 5 and 6 in Question 46. (i.e. S.T. IIIa, Q. 46. a. 5, a. 6)
