- Gethsemane (The Garden Called the Oil Press)Gethsemane walks the six-beat Iconic Story shape through the three prayers Jesus prayed in the garden, His condition shifting from 'if it can pass' to 'since it cannot,' with the disciples asleep each time He returns.
- Peter's Denial — Matthew 26 · Mark 14 · Luke 22 · John 18This page lines up all four gospel accounts of Peter's denial side by side, since they do not fully agree on who accused him or exactly where he was standing.
- The Ascension — Acts 1:1–11 · Luke 24:50–53This page walks the ascension in six passes: the story, where retellings drift, the place and the priestly posture, what Scripture leaves unsaid, what the New Testament says it started, and how the early church read it.
- The Crucifixion
- The Empty Tomb
- The Man Who Asked to Touch — John 20:24–29A three-condition checklist lays Thomas's own demand from verse 25 beside what the text actually records, and only one of the three is ever confirmed.
- The Road to Emmaus — Luke 24:13–35This page walks Luke 24:13-35 through six beats: the plain story, five places the popular retelling drifts from the text, the seven-mile distance checked against Josephus, the silences the chapter leaves open, and Luke 24:27 as the charter verse for reading Christ in the Old Testament.
- The Trial of JesusJesus stood before six hearings in about twelve hours: Annas, Caiaphas and the council by night, the full Sanhedrin at daybreak, Pilate, Herod, and Pilate a second time.
