This series of devotional meditations on the final scenes in the life of Christ on earth has been prized by successive generations of Christians ever since its original publication in 1854. Translated almost immediately into English and frequently republished, the book has been described as the greatest single volume of the entire nineteenth century on the last days of Christ's eartly ministry. Krummacher organizes his meditations around the structure of the Old Testament tabernacle. The first section, The Outer Court, covers the time from Jesus' announcement of His approaching death to His discourses on the way to Gethsemane. The central section, the longest, is entitled The Holy Place. It deals with Gethsemane, Judas' betrayal, Peter's denial, all the judicial proceedings, Christ's scourging, and the journey to Calvary. The final section, The Most Holy Place, covers the crucifixion itself, Christ's sayings from the cross, His agony and death, and His burial. This is a book to which all Christians, and especially preachers, will want to return frequently, to have their hearts warmed afresh, and their love to, and zeal for, their Saviour rekindled.

Written as a series of meditations on the last days of our Lord Jesus Christ, THE SUFFERING SAVIOR looks at the Passion week having the whole redemptive history in the background. The author organizes his book into three sections, corresponding to the three major components of the Old Testament tabernacle, and places everything that occurs at the end of life and ministry of Jesus in one of these sections, thus showing how Jesus fulfilled everything that was typified there about His passion and victory. And you, who believed on Him, you are the one for whom He did all these. May this book re-kindle your fire of love for Christ! This book has been originally published in 1854 and translated in English language in 1870.

Friedrich Wilhelm Krummacher (28 January 1796 - 10 December 1868) was a German Reformed minister and author of Christian literature.

Excerpt from The Suffering Savior: Or, Meditations on the Last Days of Christ In the following meditations I trust I have succeeded in displaying to my readers at least a portion of those riches which are contained in the inexhaustible treasury of our Saviour's sufferings. Unmutilated scriptural truth, such as I believe I promulgate, still finds a favorable reception in the world, which I have been permitted to experience in the most gratifying manner. I mention it, solely to the praise of God, and for the satisfaction of those who are like-minded, that my writings, or at least a part of them, are, as I hear, already translated into English, French, Dutch, Swedish, and as I am assured, though I can not vouch for the fact, into the Danish language also. My "Elijah the Tishbite" has even appeared in a Chinese attire. But that which is of greater importance, is the intelligence I am constantly receiving of the manifold blessing which the Lord, of his great and unmerited favor, has bestowed upon my labors. That in his condescension and loving-kindness, He would also deign to bless this my most recent work is so much the more my heartfelt wish and ardent prayer, since it has for its subject the chief supporting pillar of the whole church - the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.
