The Resurrection of Jesus--What Really Happened?

Christian apologists like Gary Habermas have written hundreds of pages on what they call the hard "evidence" for the resurrection of Jesus--taken quite literally--that he was revived in the tomb and walked out in his flesh and bones body early Easter Sunday morning after the crucifixion. But what really happened? Can we possibly know? Can we piece together from our various texts, both inside and outside the New Testament gospels, some reasonable picture of what went on that fateful day and how it led to faith that Jesus had been raised from the dead? Here is my attempt, with KZfaq host Paul Williams (‪@BloggingTheology‬ ) to offer a succinct summary of what I consider to be the most likely scenario.
For a fuller exposition see this post on my TaborBlog, with links to a half dozen full treatments of all the details of my reconstruction:

His answer was the He has never carved before... I knew that was God work

First off, all the tomb talk is probably nonsense; the Romans didn't grant 'favors' to the followers of executed criminals by allowing them to remove their bodies from crosses and second, the tomb is allegedly loaned by a 'rich guy' names Joseph of Arimathea; which a made up name! There is no place in antiquity called Arimathea! The entire story reeks of fabrication.

I was gonna be an atheist and go on atheist rants, to help progress and have some fun. I figured I should have a look first, to make sure there was nothing I would offend. Well, after some 13 years I had a week long meditative experience! I was inside the Trojan horse, buried under Roman cobblestones; lots of stuff, for seven days! I find it curious that Judas allegedly had "seven days of secret sayings" and Judas "Didymous Thomas" started the Mar Thoma Church in India around 54 CE. To take the NT as any kind of history is a big mistake: Ralph Ellis found Barabbas; Christ is the meditative experience. The NT is so much political pacification with the truth hidden inside.

How did Paul see the resurrection of Jesus when he never met him?

I get the transformed body bit, but what accounts did the disciples give of the resurrected Jesus? And would they not have wanted to stay loyal to what they saw? Another thing is the empty tomb tradition is old and surely wouldn’t have evolved from a tomb with a body in it. I’m no Christian but naw mate.

@AlbertIsraeli

What’s the difference brethren, what these two, or for that matter, if the whole world doesn’t believe the Gospel preached to us. We do know without a slight doubt, that our Lord and Saviour, Messiah Yeshua, died on the cross (for our sins), according to the Scriptures, was buried and arose from the grave on the third day (for our justification), according to the Scriptures ? Those who deny the Gospel and teach others likewise, let them be unto you “accursed”, unless they repent.

I have always wondered if Paul's vision was a hallucination caused by Ergotism( vision problems are a known side effect).

@spitfirered

I Believe That Those Who Saw Jesus Really Wanted The Strong Faith Of Jesus For Them To Be Able To See Him If They Believed In Him!

Last temptation of christ has an epic scene where Paul meets Jesus and gets scolded. Paul's response is gold

Thanks. Always good to hear academics views & reviews. New Jerome Commentary (t&tclark, Feb 2022) also needs to be read to understand what happened there to keep in context.

He allowed himself to be killed to show that we are not bound by death. He said we are the same as he and are not bound to death either.

It sounds a lot like the Rainbow Body in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.

There is very simple answer to the question “why does Jesus appear to Paul as a vision but to the disciples as flesh and blood after the resurrection?” Paul’s vision was after the ascension.

For a large part of my life I wanted to quash in my mind that Jesus Christ was raised from the dead. I didn't want to be religious. My father was a scientist and an atheist and I wanted to be like him. But in the Old Testament no matter how vague they are; there are predictions about some type of Messianic figure that will come in the future. Sometimes I can even make a case that there is a prediction of two different figures or at least it could be translated that way. But nonetheless that is the essence of the whole Old Testament. The looking forward to some type of Savior or King or Prophet. Now just suppose all those authors are just lying. Many claim to be prophets, they write "The Lord said..." Now if they wrote "The Lord said.." and that is not true then clearly they are just liars. So, if all the Old Testament writers are lying about this coming figure ... it just seems incredibly lucky that in the first century AD here comes a whole new set of liars or myth makers in the New Testament era and they decide to make the claim that this predicted figure from the Old Testament is now here in Jesus Christ.
