Speculation about the existence of the “historical” figure of Jesus does not withstand historical analysis, the Census conducted at the birth of Jesus, the coincidence with the Jewish Passover period (the Jewish years count continues to be the old), the fact that it resurrected On the third day, may be questionable, but the very pursuit of his body to this day is a historical proof.

The fact that they did not find his body now makes skeptics claim their non-existence, post-truth time.

But because they killed him, he remembers who killed him, because we know the motives.

Jews killed by stoning, beheading or beheading, crucifixion was unknown and Roman method, which was for political reasons, and the release of one prisoner and the crucifixion of another was a way to “please” the Jews, who preferred to release Barabbas.

The Jewish (and Jewish) chiefs had mistrust because Jesus “violated” Jewish laws as “working” on the Sabbath, in fact healed and proclaimed “king” of the Jews, and repudiated Pilate’s power when he questioned whether he was King, thus phrases “king of the Jews” above the crucifix was a Roman irony, since the Jews wanted the platelet to be withdrawn.

So Jesus was killed for political reasons, and despite the jealousy of the Jewish leaders and Pilate’s washing of his hands, it was the Roman Empire that arrested him, tortured him, and placed him on a cross.
The fact that coincided with the Jewish Passover on the other hand, has religious significance, for the Jews was a passage, which comes from the Jewish origin of the word Pesaḥ or Pesach, that the Jews celebrate the departure of Egyptian slavery and the arrival in the holy land.
The rites have been adapted, but it is important to know that the famous supper of Jesus (the picture of Da Vinci) and Easter itself are festivals of Jewish origin, and the cup of Elijah which Jesus picks up to drink the wine, was the chalice destined To the Messiah, and the disciples understood when he made this gesture.
Good Friday, however, is the fundamental part of the passage, for the death and the cry of the Son of God, who on the cross no longer calls the Father, but says “My God, My God, because you forsook me”, its not Father but God.

The mystic Chiara Lubich offer a key of reading this named “Jesus Abandoned”, is the true God and true man, there he merges with humanity, the historical Jesus, in this right time for humanity is united to Father by suffer of Jesus.

We have already affirmed that the whole path made Gadamer has elements to conclude that experience is the awareness of human finiteness itself and of limitations, and we quote Aeschylus’ classic reference which is quite illustrative: “to learn from suffering,” that is, In a painful way, man becomes aware of his separation from the divinity and temporality of his existence, but what is existence as spirit and biological matter?
To deal with nature, we have already said it implies differentiating the natural from the cultural, but if we think about the meaning of astrophysics and the formation of the cosmos and the planets, we will arrive where? When the first organic substance was formed, and how it came out of the nature of chemical compounds, rocks and cosmic dust.
It is known that water was an important element, but the first organic compound certainly originated from gases acting on some inorganic body, that is, somehow the first “substance” occurred, that is, an organic life formed from Of the inorganic.
But the opposite would be possible, an organic substance turn into inorganic, yes it is what happens to death, we can think of the pain as little announcements of a death of something organic in our organism that ceases to have a functionally correct form.
But transubstantiation is something more mysterious and profound, it would be consciously an organic Being to become an inorganic, and in the case of the early Christian mystic, the piece of unleavened bread, this comes from the Feast of Unleavened Bread made by the Jews from Moses until Our day in which the Eucharist means the transformation of the body and blood of Jesus into consecrated wafer, food for the disconnected soul of the cosmos, in this mystery, its reconnection with the cosmos, and therefore the true religation and thus essence of this “religion” Which is religare.
His feast is made on Holy Thursday, but transubstantiation is the feast of the whole cosmos, for at some point in history the sacred “body” has become a universe, and now this body becomes a piece of bread, a “Transubstantiation” that returns us to the whole universe

The word carnival comes from the Latin carnis levale, to remove the flesh to the letter, but it would be the carnal feasts before the 40 days of Lent which is a period for the Christians waiting for the “Passover”, the feast of the passage from the land to the Salvation, not by chance, Lent begins when Lent begins, that is, on Ash Wednesday.

We have already mentioned the origins of this festival here, especially in Brazil, but we want to go deeper into the meaning of this “passage” between the period that would be carnal and the true Passover, 40 days later.

The forty days are a reference to the forty years that the Jews walked through the wilderness in search of the promised land, coming out of the bondage of Egypt, a reference made in Salm 94 (95) verse 10: “For forty years I was displeased with that generation, And I said, “It is a people of a deviant heart, who knoweth not my purposes,” until the coming of the Passover the passage into the Promised Land.

In the Christian reinterpretation of this Jewish passage, in which there is much in common, sometimes even the Christian Easter coincides with the Jewish one, since the Jewish calendar remained the count, since there is no b.C. (Before Christ) and the d.C. (after Christ), but the reference to the period when food was scarce, due to flight, the unleavened bread, because of the bread being made without leaven, because there was no time to ferment, at last a period of suffering and fasting .

In the Catholic resignification (the Lutheran church also does it) Lent is then this period of delivering difficulties and suffering, and the cruxification of Jesus is the apex of this feast and was done exactly in a helping “Passover”, then is rewarded by the immense grace that is salvation And resurrection of Christ, in the Jewish case the passage to the Promised Land, now Israel.

The carnival is therefore the last period that precedes these 40 days and the date is marked precisely because of the Pascal calendar.

Read and then re-read, always with some prejudice, Nietzsche’s book “The Antichrist” in the first reading was materialistic and was reading Nietzsche as “irrationalism”, and recently as a Christian because it would be condoning the biggest “enemy” of human salvation .
Should have first read “The Birth of Tragedy or Hellenism and pessimism”, but actually lost prejudice when I met Oswaldo Giacoia Jr and he explained the life of Nietzsche, in particular, his pastor father and a Lutheran pietistic mother, this explains a lot of things.
Can be pretentious, but I think you can read it from the aesthetic, since it states: “. Only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world be justified forever” (Nietzsche, 1992, p. 47) and this may be an essential part of your thinking and remember here the writer Victor Hugo: “Art save the world”, see what you think of Greek tragedy.
What does this have to do with the passion of Christ, is his analysis of the role of “chorus” in the tragedy, and says the problem becomes severe in Euripides to delete the choir, destroys the tragedy and to involve the reason, eliminates one of his plays everything that is not found in life, but there is a choir. This is how many understood it as “irrational”, but the reason is in check.
But to completely eliminate the choir, Euripides did not consider the cognitive function, namely, that to know what the hero was thinking and so he, but eliminated the very information was transmitted to the public. Jacques Rancière apronfundou this in “The emancipation of the beholder,” or we could say the reintroduction of the choir.
It is the choir and not the confidant (Nietzsche cites the example of chaperone), whom the tragic hero is revealed, credibly way, your fears and deepest aspirations.
Christ calls intimately in various passages of God father, called the father of Abba would Dad or Daddy, in his prayer taught to the “choir” it creates the Our Father.
However the crucifixion he distances himself from God and closer to the human choir and says, “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me,” is your abandonment to man and his condition.
It is the tragedy of the crucifixion of Christ that invokes the choir of humanity, here He is the man.
