Publisher's Description

The New Testament resurrection narratives must be understood in both their similarities and their differences. Norman Perrin was a leading interpreter of the Gospels. In this book he relates each Synoptic account of the resurrection of Jesus to the theology of its Evangelist resulting in a new understanding of the importance of the Easter celebration. This book will illumine lay readers, clergy, and all students of the New Testament.

“This book presents in simple form the profound meaning of the Resurrection in the Synoptic Gospels.... Combining clear scholarship with sincere faith, this book makes an excellent contribution to the understanding of a crucial issue.”

William Baird

“Perrin wrote this book in an effort to answer for students, pastors, and laymen the question 'what are the gospel writers trying to say to us?' The result is a stimulating, non-technical work which should be useful both in the classroom and in adult discussion groups which are ready to probe deeply into the message of the gospels.”

R. Alan Culpepper
