The Resurrection of Jesus (Classic Reprint)

Unraveling the evidence for the Resurrection
This thoughtful work surveys key historical claims about Jesus’ death and the events following it. It weighs witness accounts, the emptiness of the tomb, and the earliest appearances, while examining how these elements shape the church’s early faith.

The author tests competing explanations, including visions and bodily resurrection, and explains why a bodily resurrection is the view most closely aligned with the Gospel record and early Christian testimony. The analysis stays grounded in historical method, considering what can be known from the sources and what remains uncertain.

• How the empty tomb and early appearances are interpreted across the Gospel accounts


• Arguments for and against the vision theory of the Risen Jesus


• Discussion of the timeline, places of appearance, and the role of Jerusalem and Galilee

Ideal for readers of Christian theology, church history, and anyone exploring how the resurrection message grew in the early church.
