| Jan 21, 2014 at 9:57 | comment | added | John Ferguson | @MarcGravell Don Carson, one of the heads of the Gospel Coalition - a veritable bastion of orthodoxy, has said there are some bits of the Bible that have come down to us that were clearly added at some point as a margin note, but somehow someone included them in a significant edition, hence they kept being included. | |
| Nov 7, 2013 at 23:34 | comment | added | Flimzy | I think this is a valid opinion--one I might even agree with if I were to invest the time to research the event closely. However, I must downvote the answer, because it doesn't actually answer the question, despite having been accepted by the OP. | |
| May 4, 2013 at 12:06 | comment | added | pterandon | Dead walking might be "high-key" enough to start a religion. One historical document (Matt 27) shows an instance of multiple cases, and multiple documents (rest of NT) show many other cases. | |
| Aug 24, 2012 at 16:36 | comment | added | Marc Gravell | @Monika which makes sense, considering most of the events were low-key, including the resurrection. Dead walking, though? | |
| Aug 24, 2012 at 13:28 | comment | added | Monika Michael | @MarcGravell Aren't you arguing from ignorance here? We're talking about the 1st century. Sometimes events that transpired in one village couldn't get to the next. The only information preserved was that which made its way into biographies of emperors or writings of philosophers, and that wasn't much. In fact the contemporary documents acknowledge none of the events recorded in the Gospels except the existence of a man named Jesus. | |
| Aug 23, 2012 at 18:06 | comment | added | Marc Gravell | @JustinY it would be speculation either way, but: in either event - pretty note-worthy by anyone's standards. | |
| Aug 23, 2012 at 17:52 | comment | added | user23 | I think its incorrect to assume that those who rose resembled corpses. The whole idea of the resurrection implies that they at least looked normal, or perhaps even glorified. | |
| Aug 23, 2012 at 17:24 | comment | added | Bruce Alderman | @Marc It depends on the church. Many denominations teach that the Bible is authoritative in matters of doctrine, but may not be reliable in matters of history. | |
| Aug 23, 2012 at 17:15 | comment | added | Greg McNulty | doesn't mean I believe any less in Jesus. When I answer to God I will tell Him I did question this part...and he may say yeah, that's Matthew but he's cool with me. | |
| Aug 23, 2012 at 17:09 | comment | added | Marc Gravell | @Greg for the record, this probably shouldn't be the accepted answer, as arguably it officially cannot be a church position - even if many Christians might be tempted to agree with it | |
