Volume 11 — January 22, 1913 “The triple Passion of Jesus: of Love, of sin, and from the Jews. The fall of Jesus into the Cedron torrent.”
Stage One — Independent Biblical Identification
The First Passion: Love Crushed Under the Press
“My first Passion was of Love, because the first step with which man, in sinning, gives himself to evil is the lack of Love; so, since Love is missing, he falls into sin. In order to be repaid through Me for the lack of love of the creatures, Love made Me suffer more than anyone; It almost crushed Me, more than if I were under a press. It gave Me as many deaths for as many creatures receiving life.”
Isaiah 63:3 — “I have trodden the wine press alone. Of the peoples, no one was with me. Yes, I trod them in my anger and trampled them in my wrath. Their lifeblood is sprinkled on my garments, and I have stained all my clothing.” Isaiah’s solitary figure under the press is the typological precursor of Love pressing Jesus alone: the one who treads becomes the one trodden, the Passion of Love reversing the direction of the Isaian winepress while fulfilling its imagery. Typological
Isaiah 53:5 — “But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.” The “crushed” language of the Suffering Servant’s fate corresponds directly to the entry’s “almost crushed Me” — the Servant-oracle anticipating the Passion of Love as the specific crushing endured for the iniquities of love’s absence. Direct doctrinal parallel
Revelation 14:19–20 — “The angel thrust his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vintage of the earth and threw it into the great wine press of the wrath of God. The wine press was trodden outside of the city, and blood came out of the wine press, up to the bridles of the horses, as far as one thousand six hundred stadia.” The apocalyptic winepress trodden outside the city — Christ as the grape of God crushed outside Jerusalem, the blood of the Passion as the wine pressed from the fruit of Love’s sacrifice. Typological
Revelation 19:15 — “Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He treads the wine press of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty.” The victorious Christ as the winepress’s subject — the same figure who in conquest treads the press here submits to its crushing on behalf of creatures whose love has failed. Typological
The Second Passion: Each Sin a Separate Passion — the Father’s Glory Restored
“In order to be repaid for the Glory taken away by the creatures, the Father made Me suffer the Passion of sin, such that each sin gave Me a special Passion. Although there was one Passion, I suffered for sin as many Passions as there would be sins committed until the end of the world. So, the Glory of the Father was restored.”
Isaiah 53:10–12 (translation pending) — “Yet it was the will of the LORD to crush him; he has put him to grief… by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities.” The Father’s purposive crushing — “the Father made Me suffer the Passion of sin” — is anticipated in the Servant-oracle’s declaration that the crushing is the LORD’s own will for the restoration of many. Direct doctrinal parallel
2 Corinthians 5:21 — “For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” The Passion of Sin takes 2 Corinthians 5:21 to its structural extreme: not merely that Christ is made sin in the abstract but that each sin generates its own distinct Passion within Him — the becoming-sin is granular, total, and unbounded by time. Direct doctrinal parallel
Romans 3:25–26 — “whom God sent to be an atoning sacrifice through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God’s forbearance; to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time, that he might himself be just and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.” The Father’s restored glory corresponds to the demonstration of divine righteousness through the Passion: the defrauded glory is the same reality Paul names as God’s righteousness requiring satisfaction, and the Passion of Sin is its direct answer. Direct doctrinal parallel
Colossians 1:24 — “Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the assembly,” The Passion of Sin as unbounded by time — “as many Passions as there would be sins committed until the end of the world” — gives Colossians 1:24 its structural ground: the ongoing filling-up is possible because the original Passion already contained within itself every sin’s claim upon Christ’s suffering. Direct doctrinal parallel
John 12:27–28 — “Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? But I came to this time for this cause. Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.” The Garden’s direct petition for the Father’s glory corresponds to the Passion of Sin’s purpose — restoring the defrauded divine glory. The “Father, glorify your name” is the soul of the second Passion. Direct doctrinal parallel
Mark 14:41 — “He came the third time and said to them, “Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough. The hour has come. Behold, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.” The declaration following the Garden’s agony — Hogan’s interpretive key: the interior Passion (Love and Sin) was complete in the Garden; the exterior Passion to follow was the third Passion only. Direct doctrinal parallel
The Third Passion: From the Hands of the Jews — Man’s Strength Restored
“The third effect produced by sin is the weakness in man. Therefore, I wanted to suffer the Passion from the hands of the Jews — my third Passion — to restore in man his lost strength.”
Hebrews 5:8–9 — “though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered. Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,” Christ’s bodily Passion — suffering from human hands — as the mechanism by which He becomes the source of the strength obedience requires: the weakness restored through precisely the suffering that demanded the greatest strength. Direct doctrinal parallel
Hebrews 9:14 — “how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” The triple restoration — Love, Glory, Strength — finds its comprehensive form in the blood’s purifying action: conscience restored to serve corresponds to the strength of the will restored. Direct doctrinal parallel
Isaiah 53:4–5 — “Surely he has borne our sickness and carried our suffering; … by his wounds we are healed.” The physical wounds of the third Passion — the Passion from the Jews — as the mechanism by which the weakened will is healed and strengthened: the wounds that diminish His physical strength are the means of restoring the strength sin removed from creatures. Direct doctrinal parallel
Romans 5:6 — “For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.” The weakness in man that necessitated the third Passion is explicitly named in Paul: the creature’s weakness is the precise condition Christ addresses through the Passion from human hands. Direct doctrinal parallel
Lamentations 1:12 — “Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look, and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow, which is brought on me, with which the LORD has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.” The incomparable magnitude of the Garden suffering — three Passions simultaneously — corresponds to Lamentations’ cry of unequaled sorrow: no suffering in the corpus of human experience compares to what Christ bore in the Garden. Affective/meditative
The Cedron Torrent: Removing the Mantle of Sin
“In creating the soul I covered her with a mantle of light and beauty. Sin removes this mantle of light and beauty, placing a mantle of darkness and ugliness, rendering the soul disgusting and nauseating. In order to remove this mantle — so filthy — which sin puts on the soul, I allowed the Jews to throw Me into this torrent, where I remained as if covered inside and outside of Myself, since these putrid waters entered even into my ears, into my nostrils and into my mouth, to the extent that the Jews were disgusted in touching Me.”
Genesis 1:26–27 — “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him.” The “mantle of light and beauty” with which the soul was covered at creation is the image and likeness — a garment of divine light constituting the soul’s original beauty and dignity. Its removal by sin is the disfigurement of the imago Dei. Direct doctrinal parallel
Psalm 104:2 — “He covers himself with light as with a garment. He stretches out the heavens like a curtain.” God’s own nature as a light-garment — the soul’s original mantle of light was a share in the divine self-covering, a participation in the luminosity of God’s own being. Typological
Ezekiel 16:8–10 — “‘“Now when I passed by you, and looked at you, behold, your time was the time of love; and I spread my garment over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I pledged myself to you and entered into a covenant with you,” says the Lord GOD, “and you became mine. “‘“Then I washed you with water. Yes, I thoroughly washed away your blood from you, and I anointed you with oil. I clothed you also with embroidered work and put leather sandals on you. I dressed you with fine linen and covered you with silk.” The divine bridal covering — the beautiful garment God places on the soul at creation, anticipating the Luisian mantle of light and beauty; sin is the Ezekielian abandonment of this covering. Typological
Isaiah 64:6 — “For we have all become like one who is unclean, and all our righteousness is like a polluted garment. We all fade like a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.” The mantle of darkness and ugliness that sin places on the soul is the Isaian polluted garment — the most direct OT parallel to the entry’s image of sin’s covering replacing the light-mantle. Direct doctrinal parallel
Zechariah 3:3–5 — “garments, and was standing before the angel. He answered and spoke … stood before him, saying, “Take the filthy garments off him.” To him he said, “Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing.” The filthy garments of sin removed and replaced with pure vestments — the direct typological precursor to the Cedron event: Christ submerged in what the filthy garments represent so that they can be stripped from the soul. Typological
Isaiah 52:14 — “Just as many were astonished at you— his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men—” The Servant’s physically marred appearance corresponds to the Cedron’s state: Christ’s body made to externalize what sin looks like, the mantle of darkness worn on His own person so it can be lifted from the soul’s. Direct doctrinal parallel
2 Corinthians 5:21 — “For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” The Cedron makes this Pauline formula literal: the One who bears no sin wears its external appearance on His physical body — the filthy waters as the visible, bodily enactment of “made to be sin.” Direct doctrinal parallel
Psalm 51:2, 7 — “Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin. Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.” The Psalmist’s petition for washing from sin is answered through its inversion: Christ submits to the filthy washing so that the soul may receive the clean washing. Direct doctrinal parallel
1 John 1:7 — “But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.” The Cedron event is the physical ground of this Johannine principle: the cleansing blood operates precisely because Christ absorbed into His body the filth of the soul’s sin-mantle. Direct doctrinal parallel
Revelation 7:14 — “I told him, “My lord, you know.” He said to me, “These are those who came out of the great suffering. They washed their robes and made them white in the Lamb’s blood.” The robes washed white — the soul’s mantle of darkness removed and the light-mantle restored through the Passion event, of which the Cedron is the concrete physical mechanism. Direct doctrinal parallel
Stage Two — Comparison with Hogan’s Commentary
CORRESPONDENCES
Isaiah 63:3 identified by both for the winepress/Passion of Love movement. Hogan names it explicitly; Stage One identifies it as the Isaian anchor for the press image.
Revelation 14:19–20 identified by both as the apocalyptic winepress parallel.
Revelation 19:15 identified by both as the third winepress text. All three winepress citations form a shared cluster.
Mark 14:41 identified by both, though with a significant interpretive difference in angle (see Deviations below).
DEVIATIONS
Stage One and Hogan share Mark 14:41, but the interpretive angles differ significantly. Stage One reads it as the declaration following the Garden’s interior Passion; Hogan supplies the specific exegetical point that “It is enough; the hour has come” means the entire interior Passion — the Passion of Love and the Passion of Sin — was complete before the exterior Passion began. Hogan’s reading provides the structural key to the triple-Passion teaching: the Garden is where the first two Passions occurred; the Passion of the Jews, which follows, is only the third. This interpretive nuance is Hogan’s most significant exegetical contribution to the entry.

Cross-textual reference — “Hours of the Passion”: Hogan identifies the triple-Passion teaching as continuous with Luisa’s other major work, the Hours of the Passion, which contains the same structure in the Agony in the Garden section. This is a significant cross-textual synthesis establishing doctrinal continuity across Luisa’s writings.
-
Tabernacle-Passion extension: Hogan supplies the forward-pointing theological note that Jesus suffers the Passion continuously in the Tabernacle from all sins — the Eucharistic Presence as the ongoing site of the Passion of Sin. The temporal unboundedness (“as many Passions as sins until the end of the world”) is not merely historical but present in the Tabernacle.
-
Mark 14:41 interpretive key: Hogan’s reading that “It is enough; the hour has come” means the interior Passion was already complete in the Garden — the exterior Passion (Passion of the Jews) being only what remained — provides the structural hermeneutic for understanding the triple-Passion sequence.

STAGE TWO SYNTHESIS
The entry’s combined biblical imagination is dominated by two traditions: the Isaian Servant-oracle (Isaiah 52–53; 63:3) and the Johannine-Luisian garment theology. The winepress cluster (Isaiah 63:3; Revelation 14:19–20; 19:15) is the shared foundation for the triple-Passion movement, with Stage One deepening it through the Isaiah 53 suffering-servant tradition, which Hogan does not address despite its structural centrality. The triple-Passion structure itself — Love, Sin, Jews — is the entry’s most theologically novel contribution, and Hogan’s Mark 14:41 reading provides its organizing hermeneutic: the first two Passions are interior and completed in the Garden; the third is exterior and provides the visible Passion narrative. For the Cedron movement, the garment tradition (Isaiah 64:6; Zechariah 3:3–5; Ezekiel 16:8–10; Genesis 1:26–27) is entirely Stage One’s contribution — Hogan stays with the phenomenological and pastoral registers — while 2 Corinthians 5:21 supplies the Pauline formulation that the Cedron enacts with physical literalness. The two movements together constitute a single doctrinal arc: the triple Passion restores Love, Glory, and Strength; the Cedron removes the sin-mantle and restores the light-mantle. The Passion is both tripartite restoration and mantle-exchange.
Cross-Entry Synthesis
Volume 11 — January 22, 1913
The Triple Passion: Love, Sin, and the Jews
The entry’s most theologically distinctive contribution is the triple-Passion structure: three distinct Passions occurring in the Garden, each addressed to a specific deficit produced by sin. The first — the Passion of Love — addresses the absence of love that initiates the fall into sin. The second — the Passion of Sin — addresses each individual sin’s defrauding of the Father’s glory. The third — the Passion of the Jews — addresses the weakening of man’s strength. Together they constitute a complete remedial theology of the Passion: not a single undifferentiated suffering but a three-register event in which every dimension of sin’s damage receives its specific answer.
The winepress cluster — identified by both sources simultaneously — supplies the governing typological framework for the first Passion. Isaiah 63:3 (the solitary figure under the press), Revelation 14:19–20 (the great winepress of God’s wrath), and Revelation 19:15 (the Almighty’s winepress) together constitute a tradition in which Christ is simultaneously the one who treads the press and the grape crushed within it. The entry reverses the Isaian direction: Love presses Jesus, not the other way — He is the fruit being crushed to make the wine of restored love. This reversal is the Luisian theological key to the winepress tradition.
Stage One widens the foundation with the Suffering Servant tradition that Hogan does not address. Isaiah 53:5 (“crushed for our iniquities”) supplies the direct verbal parallel to the press imagery. Isaiah 53:10–12 discloses the Father’s purposive agency: it was the LORD’s will to crush Him, and the crushing is for many. Romans 3:25–26 translates the glory-restoration of the second Passion into Pauline terms: the propitiation demonstrates God’s righteousness — the defrauded glory is precisely what Paul names as the divine righteousness requiring vindication, and its satisfaction is the Passion of Sin’s stated purpose. John 12:27–28 (“Father, glorify your name”) is the prayer from within the Garden that the second Passion answers: the Father’s glory is the explicit petition at the heart of the Gethsemane agony. Colossians 1:24 (filling up what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions) receives its structural ground here: the Passion of Sin’s temporal unboundedness — containing within itself every sin until the end of the world — is why Paul’s formula is possible. The ongoing filling-up is not an addition to the Passion but the unfolding of what was already completely present within it.
The interpretive key to the entire triple-Passion structure is Hogan’s reading of Mark 14:41. “It is enough; the hour has come” — spoken at the Garden’s conclusion, before the exterior Passion has begun — means that the interior Passion (Love and Sin) was complete. What follows in the gospel narrative is only the third Passion: the physical suffering from human hands to restore man’s lost strength. The Passion of the Jews is thereby the visible, exterior surface of what had already been accomplished interiorly; the agony in the Garden is the site of the two invisible Passions that carry the greater redemptive weight. Romans 5:6 (Christ dying for the weak) and Hebrews 5:8–9 (learning obedience through suffering) supply the scriptural form of the third Passion’s remedial logic: the weakness in man requires precisely the kind of suffering that demands the greatest strength.
The Cedron Torrent: Mantle of Light and Mantle of Darkness
The second movement narrows from the tripartite structure of the Passion to a single event: the throwing of Jesus into the Cedron torrent. The theological architecture is the mantle-exchange: the soul was created with a mantle of light and beauty (the imago Dei as a luminous garment); sin replaced it with a mantle of darkness and ugliness; Christ absorbs the dark mantle into Himself through the Cedron immersion so that it can be stripped from the soul.
The garment tradition is entirely Stage One’s contribution to this movement. Genesis 1:26–27 establishes the original light-mantle as the imago Dei — the soul’s beauty at creation is inseparable from the divine image it bears. Psalm 104:2 (“covering yourself with light as with a garment”) reveals that the soul’s light-mantle was a participation in the divine self-clothing — God’s own luminosity shared with the creature. Ezekiel 16:8–10 supplies the covenantal register: the divine bridal covering placed on Israel is the same garment, here disclosed as having its deepest source in creation itself. The fall of the mantle is then traced through Isaiah 64:6 (all our righteous deeds as a polluted garment — sin’s dark mantle) and Zechariah 3:3–5 (filthy garments removed and pure vestments given — the direct typological event that the Cedron fulfills). The garment tradition runs from Genesis to Zechariah as a continuous arc, and the Cedron is its NT realization.
2 Corinthians 5:21 (“made to be sin who knew no sin”) provides the Pauline formulation that the Cedron enacts with physical literalness. The putrid waters entering His ears, nostrils, and mouth — His body made nauseating even to Himself — is the visible, bodily form of what Paul states abstractly. Isaiah 52:14 (appearance marred beyond human semblance) is the Servant-oracle’s anticipation of the same state: the Servant’s marred appearance is the physical externalization of what sin looks like when placed on the sinless body. The Cedron makes this explicit by specifying the mechanism: the filthy mantle is not merely imputed to Christ but physically absorbed into His person, so that it can be physically removed from the soul.
Psalm 51:2, 7 (wash me, purge me with hyssop) stands in inversion to the Cedron event: the Psalmist’s prayer for washing is answered through its opposite — Christ submits to the filthy washing so that the soul receives the clean. 1 John 1:7 (the blood of Jesus cleanses from all sin) and Revelation 7:14 (robes washed white in the blood of the Lamb) supply the NT completion: the cleansing operates because the filth was first absorbed.
Synthesis
The dominant biblical imagination of this entry is the Isaian Servant-oracle operating across both movements simultaneously. The winepress imagery (Isaiah 63:3), the crushing language (Isaiah 53:5), the Father’s purposive agency (Isaiah 53:10–12), and the marred appearance (Isaiah 52:14) together constitute the Isaian interpretive ground for both the triple Passion and the Cedron event. Second in prominence is the Pauline propitiation and becoming-sin tradition (Romans 3:25–26; 2 Corinthians 5:21), which translates the Luisian structural claims into their doctrinal register. The garment tradition (Genesis through Zechariah) is the third major tradition, operative exclusively in the Cedron movement and entirely Stage One’s contribution.
The scriptural traditions most load-bearing for Luisa’s mystical framework in this entry are: the winepress cluster (Isaiah 63:3; Revelation 14:19–20; 19:15) as the governing typology for the Passion of Love; the garment tradition (Genesis 1:26–27; Isaiah 64:6; Zechariah 3:3–5) as the governing typology for the Cedron; and 2 Corinthians 5:21 as the Pauline compression of the Cedron’s theological logic.
Three findings carry the most theological weight. First, the triple-Passion structure itself discloses that the Garden is the site of the two most interior Passions — Love and Sin — and that Hogan’s Mark 14:41 reading is structurally necessary: the interior Passion was complete before Calvary began. Second, Colossians 1:24 receives its structural ground here — the ongoing filling-up is not an addition to the Passion but the temporal unfolding of its already-total interior scope, each sin drawing on a Passion that already contained it. Third, the mantle-exchange theology supplies the most visually concrete IDR-1 formulation in Volume 11: the soul’s disfigurement is not merely an interior diminishment but the replacement of a luminous garment with a dark one, and its restoration is the physical removal of that dark garment from Christ’s body in the Cedron’s waters.

11-1913-01-22
IDR-1 — mantle-exchange as most visually concrete IDR-1 formulation: The mantle-of-light/mantle-of-darkness image is the most visually concrete IDR-1 formulation in the corpus. Prior IDR-1 registers developed the disfigurement-and-restoration pattern through mirror-reflection, Augustinian-powers structure, self-knowledge, and trinitarian-image dimensions; this entry introduces the vestment register — the soul’s original beauty as a luminous garment (Genesis 1:26–27; Psalm 104:2; Ezekiel 16:8–10), sin as its replacement with a dark mantle (Isaiah 64:6), and the Cedron as the physical mechanism of its removal. The garment tradition (Genesis through Zechariah 3:3–5) is the OT scriptural cluster governing this register; Revelation 7:14 and 1 John 1:7 supply the NT completion. Assessed as IDR-1’s vestment register — a formally distinct formulation from the mirror-soul and trinitarian-powers registers, though all address the same disfigurement-restoration pattern.
VSC-1 — triple-Passion as tripartite-causality structure: The entry provides the fullest explicit statement of victim-soul causality’s mechanism in the corpus. The three Passions correspond to the three effects of sin (absence of love → Passion of Love; defrauded glory → Passion of Sin; weakened strength → Passion of the Jews), each producing a specific restoration at the level at which sin operates. This is the foundational theology underlying VSC-1’s entire register sequence — the causal basis that all prior registers presuppose. Rather than opening a new formal register (which would be premature given that this is the Passion’s foundation, not a new modality), this is noted as the doctrinal architecture disclosed at the base of VSC-1.
