Plt;iPgt;The Fourth CupPlt;/iPgt;P#160;not only tracks the authorP#8217;s 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.P#160;Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt; 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 BibleP#8217;s Old Testament turned up intriguing clues connecting the Last Supper and ChristP#8217;s death on Calvary. As Hahn tells the story of his discovery of the supreme importance of the Passover in GodP#8217;s plan of salvation, we too experience often-overlooked relationships between Abel, Abraham, and the HebrewsP#8217; 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 ChristP#8217;s paschal sacrifice.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt; Rooted in Scripture and ingrained with lively history,P#160;Plt;iPgt;The Fourth CupPlt;/iPgt;P#160;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 ChristP#8217;s life, death, and resurrection.
