Abstract

The doctrine of resurrection is core to Christianity. One of the simplest and earliest expression of Christian faith we find in the New Testament is from Paul:

“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4, emphasis added)

So fundamental is the Christian doctrine of resurrection and so familiar we may be with this idea that we may miss how stunning and incredibly unexpected this idea is.
