    The Target and the Arrows Life beyond Death in Ancient Paganism Origin and Shape of Jewish Resurrection Beliefs Resurrection outside the orinthian Correspondence Resurrection in Corinth: Introduction Resurrection in Corinth: The Key Passages When Paul Saw Jesus Resurrection in EarlyChristianity Apart from Paul Hope Refocussed (2): Other New Testament Writings Hope Refocussed (3): Non-Canoncial Early Christian Texts Hope in Person The Story of Easter Fear and Trembling: Mark
    Synopsis
    Why did Christianity begin, and why did it take the shape it did? To answer this question - which any historian must face - renowned New Testament scholar N. T. Wright focuses on the key question: what precisely happened at Easter? What did the early Christians mean when they said that Jesus of Nazareth had been raised from the dead? What can be said today about this belief? This book, third in Wright's series Christian Origins and the Question of God, sketches a map of ancient beliefs about life after death, in both the Greco-Roman and Jewish worlds. It then highlights the fact that the early Christians' belief about the afterlife belonged firmly on the Jewish spectrum, while introducing several new mutations and sharper definitions. This, together with other features of early Christianity, forces the historian to read the Easter narratives in the gospels, not simply as late rationalizations of early Christian spirituality, but as accounts of two actual events: the empty tomb of Jesus and his "appearances." How do we explain these phenomena? The early Christians' answer was that Jesus had indeed been bodily raised from the dead; that was why they hailed him as the messianic "son of God." No modern historian has come up with a more convincing explanation. Facing this question, we are confronted to this day with the most central issues of worldview and theology., Why did Christianity begin, and why did it take the shape it did?

      • Profound Book

        For the advanced theologian. Covers the broad topic of death, life after death, resurrection, not only from the Christian perspective but other belief systems. Tom Wright continues with this third volume in the series building on the first two continuing a profound world view. I highly recommend it. It does require serious study and patience to get the information being transmitted.

      • Thorough, important book on the Resurrection

        The most thorough and well-researched book on the Resurrection I have discovered yet. Very difficult to read, though. Not for sissies.
