Attempts To Make Sense Of The Bible That Do Not Integrate The Crucifixion And Resurrection Of Jesus Are Doomed To Failure. Jesus Own Followers Did Not Expect Him To Be Crucified; They Certainly Did Not Expect Him To Rise Again. Yet After These Events Their Thinking And Attitudes Were So Transformed That They Could See The Sheer Inevitability That Jesus Would Die On A Cross And Leave An Empty Tomb Behind, And Absolutely Everything In Their Lives Was Changed. However Much The Bible Insists On The Historicity Of These Events, It Is As Important To Know What They Mean As To Know That They Happened. With Clarity And Conviction, D. A. Carson Unpacks What Some Of The Earliest Witnesses Wrote, In Five New Testament Texts, To Provide An Introductory Explanation Of Jesus Death And Resurrection.
