Umm, isn't the word your'e looking for is The Bible? I can't believe I read all of these Posts and hardly anyone mentioned that word. If you're looking for the "book" that was used for The Passion Of The Christ, it's called The New Testament. Preferably out of the King James Version, but I think the Catholics may have another slightly different Version they use, and that's what Mel Gibson may have used for reference for his movie. I thought it was a great movie. Was I "moved"? Not to the extent I would have gone to a police station and confessed to any possible crimes I may have committed. But I think it's probably the most realistic and historical movie about the crucifixion ever done.
