The Apocalyptic Resurrection of Jesus - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The language and imagery accounts of the resurrection in the Gospels are difficult to take literally. Some read the resurrection appearances as “myths and legends.” Others speak of the resurrection of Jesus as a “symbol.” The events of Palm Sunday are dramatic, and the picture given appear to conform to the historicity of Palm Sunday. Both the language and the manner of presentation change when presented with the resurrection. A different imagery is used, which can be seen as a distinct language called “apocalyptic language.”

The Apocalyptic Resurrection of Jesus addresses the relevance of the resurrection for Christian witness and personal faith today. The meaning, origin, and purpose of apocalyptic language are explained and examined in the Gospels, the writings of Paul, and the book of Revelation as they witness to the resurrection of Jesus for a positive and hopeful faith.
