Believers and non-believers alike have been arguing about the Resurrection since the day Jesus rose. What really happened? How was he raised from the dead? Did an actual dead body really come back to life and step out of the grave, or was the Resurrection a monumental life-changing event inside the consciousness of Jesus’s followers? Or was it both a real physical event and an event inside the consciousness of believers?
Obviously nobody was there to see what actually happened. Those who claimed that Jesus was alive again didn’t see him rise and emerge from the tomb; they met him only after he had already risen and, immediately, believers and sceptics began to divide from each other: persons who claimed to have touched him and others who doubted that testimony.
