Preachers and poets have made much of the fickleness of the crowds who form the backdrop to the story of Holy Week. In this book Tony Dickinson asks how far this fickleness reflects reality and how far it is a fantasy induced by failure to engage fully with the Gospel narratives. Interwoven with this analysis are depictions of three imagined encounters that might have taken place during the week leading up to the Crucifixion, two involving protagonists in the Gospel narratives and a third introducing a fictional member of the Jewish authorities.

This book uncovers what the apocalyptic writings in the Bible were aiming to reveal about God’s action in the world in the age when they were composed. It encourages us to think how their message might be interpreted for people of faith in the present age, which is facing threats at least as serious as those which seemed about to overwhelm believers, whether Jewish or Christian, at the time the apocalyptic texts were written. What is important is the message of hope which accompanies the proclamation of Divine Judgement. Jesus repeatedly urges his disciples to be alert to the signs of the times and to endure steadfastly whatever disasters and betrayals those times may bring.
