The Empty Tomb ─ Jesus Beyond The Grave

Historians, philosophers, and religious scholars some with an overtly secular perspective explore aspects of the central mystery of Christian history. Among their topics are the Resurrection as initially improbable, the spiritual body of Christ and the legend of the empty tomb, the plausibility of theft, financial aspects of the Resurrection, and reformed epistemology and biblical hermeneutics. Ten of the 15 essays have appeared in whole or in part before, mostly in journals. Annotation c2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
