Can Anyone Answer This?

Why is there so little information regarding the crown of thorns? I’m familiar with Saint Rita, but does anyone have further knowledge or links to this subject?

Does it only occur on the front of the head? Are there cases where it appeared on the front (forehead) and / or lower back of the head? Did she actually (or anyone else) actually pull thorns out of their head or did they just feel something terribly painful and shaped like thorns and it was later followed by sores? Was it intermittent? Did it last forever? Why did they receive it? I imagine it wold be quite painful, so they probably didn’t ask for it…

Any info would be appreciated.

Yes! I am so glad to see another person interested in the Crown of Thorns…wow! The best book to get is called “The Mystery of The Crown of Thorns” by A Passionist Father. That really is the author. He gives no name. I got it from Mother of Our Savior Publishing.

I will try to locate and post a link.

Also, “5he Passion of The Christ” by Emmerich is fantastic and has some insights on the Crown, as well as the entire Passion of course.

Just found it on Amazon…unbelievable. it is seriously the best book. It talks about the Crown prefigured in the Old Testament, the meaning of the Crown, mystics with the wounds, devotion to the Crown. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Get this book!
