About this audiobook
From the bestselling author ofĀ The Lamb's Supper comes an illuminating work on the Catholic Eucharist and its link to the Jewish Passover meal.
Ā
āRead this book. And donāt just read it. Pray about it. Reflect on it. And share it with others.āāBrant Pitre,Ā author ofĀ The Case for Jesus
In this brilliant bookāpart memoir, part detective story, and part biblical studyāScott Hahn opens up new vistas on ancient landscapes while shedding light on his own enduring faith journey. The Fourth CupĀ not only tracks the authorās gradual conversion along the path of Evangelicalism to the doorsteps of the Catholic faith, but also explores the often obscure and misunderstood rituals of Passover and their importance in foreshadowing salvation in Jesus Christ.Ā
Revealing the story of his formative years as an often hot-headed student and earnest seeker in search of answers to great biblical mysteries, Hahn shows how his ardent exploration of the Bibleās Old Testament turned up intriguing clues connecting the Last Supper and Christās death on Calvary. As Hahn tells the story of his discovery of the supreme importance of the Passover in Godās plan of salvation, we too experience often-overlooked relationships between Abel, Abraham, and the Hebrewsā liberation from slavery in Egypt. Along the way, Hahn reveals how the traditional fourth cup of wine used in the concluding celebration of Passover explains in astonishing ways Christās paschal sacrifice.
Rooted in Scripture and ingrained with lively history,Ā The Fourth CupĀ delivers a fascinating view of the bridges that span old and new covenants, and celebrates the importance of the Jewish faith in understanding more fully Christās life, death, and resurrection.
