Sinopsis
Excerpt from The First Easter Dawn: An Inquiry Into the Evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus
To the advanced Rationalist this book may seem superfluous. Miracles, some may say, are impossible, because they would conflict with the universal law of causation. No evidence can prove a miracle. Why, then, trouble to examine the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus '2 But many sound thinkers decline to assume the impossibility of the miraculous, while remaining convinced that a dead man's return to life must always be more unlikely than the falsity of testimony to that effect. And as the haziest notions on this subject are still prevalent it has seemed desirable to group into one volume some of the principal objections to the orthodox doctrine as well as some examination of the main arguments in its favour.

Excerpt from The First Easter Dawn: An Inquiry Into the Evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus
The prominence which the subject of this work has assumed in recent years may be held to excuse the publication of a further attempt to bring it into clearer light. So far as I am aware, no tolerably complete examination of the evidence from the standpoint of modern Rationalism exists in this country. It is hoped that the present volume may supply a need which is felt by many inquirers.
The extensive sale of a certain work of fiction, the strange crudities of which might have been a source of innocent amusement had they not been gravely endorsed by some dignitaries of the Church, has stimulated my resolve to supply, to the best of my power, a counteracting influence on behalf of sobriety and common sense. It is not to be expected that a work on the unpopular side will meet with equal assent or appreciation; but if it should enable even a few seekers after truth to obtain a firmer grasp of a great historical problem, my labour will not have been wasted.
Many will think this book too long. It is in reality too short. Some branches of the subject have had to be treated either very lightly or not at all.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the historical evidence surrounding the resurrection of Jesus Christ, arguing that a resurrection from the dead is a supernatural event that requires strong evidence. The author analyzes both Christian and non-Christian defenses of the resurrection, and concludes that the available evidence does not provide certainty. The book highlights the importance of historical criticism in understanding the New Testament accounts, examining discrepancies, and considering the context of ancient beliefs in miracles. It also explores the role of subjective experiences and the influence of Old Testament prophecies on the development of the resurrection narrative. The author concludes that while the belief in Jesus' resurrection may have had a profound impact on the lives of early Christians, the historical evidence for the event remains insufficient to prove its actuality. This book offers a balanced and critical assessment of the resurrection story, challenging readers to consider the complexities and uncertainties surrounding this foundational Christian doctrine. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331193524_0
