[quote=Anonymous]Obviously many folks back then beloved in the resurrection of Jesus, and died for it, and many folks did not.
One point I found interesting, which is made in the book 'The resurrection of the son of God' (an academic tome that took me for ever to read) is how odd it was that a Jewish sect (such as the early Christian were) would believe in the resurrection of one single man.

Also odd is that the Gospels record that women were the first to see the resurrected Jesus - a woman testimony was considered weak back then and would not have been a first choice if you were going to make something up.

Back in the first century (some) Jews might have believed in the 'general resurrection' but none in the resurrection of only one man.

" Keller bases his arguments for the reality of The Resurrection of the Son of God on NT Wright’s book of this name. For those who are interested in condensed versions (Wright’s book after all is 740 rather dense pages), the arguments are outlined in a lecture “Can a Scientist Believe in the Resurrection” available in audio, video, or text form here or here. Another lecture by Wright at Emory University in 2008 “Why Does Jesus’ Resurrection Matter?” can be found here with Q&A here."[/quote]
