At the height of his popularity, Lloyd C. Douglas was receiving on average a hundred letters a week from fans. One of those fans, a department store clerk in Ohio named Hazel McCann, wrote to Douglas asking what he thought had happened to Christ's garments after the crucifixion. Douglas immediately began working on The Robe, sending each chapter to Hazel as he finished it. It is to her that Douglas dedicated this book. A Roman soldier, Marcellus, wins Christ's robe as a gambling prize. He then sets forth on a quest to find the truth about the Nazarene's robe, a quest that reaches to the very roots and heart of Christianity. Set against the vividly drawn background of ancient Rome, this is a timeless story of adventure, faith, and romance, a tale of spiritual longing and ultimate redemption.… (plus d'informations)

The crime of all crimes.
Wrongfully accused -
Unjustly tried -
Iniquitously put to death.
The story of Jesus.
What you have before you - A possibly life-altering reading experience that makes you realize the grammatical superfluity of the comparative for “beautiful”.
If you are an agnostic like me, or even an atheist, this is perhaps the closest we may ever get to understanding that perhaps, just perhaps there could have been a man or at some point in the future will be again a man/woman that was or will be ever so much more.
Jesus may not be the main character in The Robe 👘 but he is in the thoughts and minds of the main characters, most of all of the protagonists Marcus gallius and Dimitrius and does both control their actions and steer along the plot.
This is about Jesus, and that’s a dicey business.
Writing about Jesus one of the two might happen . The theme itself may have the reader love a merely average work, or hate even the most eloquent effort. After all, Jesus is virtually inseparable from religion and as such a topic of the utmost sensitivity. But that is exactly what the writer managed, to spin a story with historicity in mind yet love for the subject in his heart, separate from religious orthodoxy.
A novel about Jesus that I believe even a religious hardliner might appreciate, especially since for better or worse it is based on the books of the four evangelists with all the discrepancies and inconsistencies. ( )

I enjoyed this book and the glimpse it gave into early Christianity and the lives of the followers of Jesus. ( )

This novel helped me grow my understanding and feel for one way a Roman Catholic priest could be. ( )

Un soldado romano gana una toga que pertenece a Cristo en una apuesta. Al verla, no parece más que una toga normal, desgastada y hecha jirones, decolorada por el intenso sol romano, y tan insignificante como la prenda de cualquier otro hombre de la calle. Pero, para aquellos que la tocan, para aquéllos que se atrevan a vestirla, el verdadero poder de la toga de Jesucristo es un misterio tan indescriptible como la vida misma. Para Marcellus, un soldado cuya vida está consagrada al Imperio romano, la adquisición de la toga es mucho más que una mera coincidencia.
Constituye el primer paso de la senda hacia la verdad innegable del pasado y hacia las inmensas repercusiones que podría tener sobre la existencia de todos los habitantes del imperio. Cuando a Marcellus se le revelan los poderes de la toga, se embarca en un viaje que le llevará a través de extensas tierras, hasta las profundidades de su propia alma, donde nada podrá protegerle del poder implacable de la toga.

Esta peça tem comovente e intenso fervor religioso. Emociona enquanto peça de fé, triunfante e marcante para qualquer ocasião religiosa. Ela foi escolhida por Hollywood para o primeiro filme rodado no sistema CinemaScope - que infelizmente era artisticamente muito frustrado.
Marcellus, um romano, está procurando uma resposta para o enigma da vida de Jesus. Ele acredita que Jesus haja sido o maior dos homens, mas duvida que fosse mais do que um homem. O galileu carrega consigo o Manto de Jesus, que ganhou nos dados depois de ajudar a crucificar Jesus. Em Jerusalém, ele encontra os cristãos perseguidos e caçados pelos romanos. Alguns deles suspeitam que ele planeja traí-los, mas em uma cena dramática Marcelo prova sua boa fé e, ao testemunhar a morte corajosa de um deles, dá mais um passo de fé e aceita Jesus como seu Salvador.

Because she was only fifteen and busy with her growing up, Lucia's periods of reflection were brief and infrequent; but this morning she felt weighted with responsibility.
