The Passion of Christ is the sum total of events that brought physical and spiritual suffering to Jesus Christ in the last days and hours of his earthly life. A special place among the Passion of Christ is occupied by the events that occurred after the Last Supper: His arrest, judgment, scourging and execution — the culminating moment of the Christ's Passion. Relics of the Passion, also known as Arma Christi, are the artefacts, preserved by the Catholic Church and venerated by Christians of all denominatins.
