Resurrection - Sale

Myth Or Reality?

BY JOHN SHELBY SPONG

Brief Description:
Using approaches from the Hebrew interpretive tradition to discern the actual events surrounding Jesus' death, Bishop Spong questions the historical validity of literal narrative concerning the Resurrection. He asserts that the resurrection story was born in an experience that opened the discinples' eyes to the reality of God and the meaning of Jesus of Nazareth. Spong traces the Christian origins of anti-Semitism to the Church's fabrication of the ultimate Jewish scapegoat, Judas Iscariot. He affirms the inclusiveness of the Christain message and emphsizes the necessity of mutual integrity and respect among Christians and Jews.
