Description
This third volume in N. T. Wright's magisterial series, Christian Origins and the Question of God, stands as a major point of reference for all students of the New Testament.
The Resurrection of the Son of God covers ancient beliefs about life after death, from Homer's Hades to ancient Jewish beliefs, and from the Bible to the Dead Sea Scrolls and beyond.
It examines early Christian beliefs about resurrection in general, and that of Jesus in particular, beginning with Paul and working through to the start of the third century.
The book explores the Easter stories of the Gospels and seeks the best historical conclusions about the empty tomb and the belief that Jesus did rise bodily from the dead.
