The Ressurrection of Jesus: John Dominic Crossan and N.T. Wright in Dialogue Book

NT Wright, a prominent evangelical theologian, and John Dominic Crossan, a leading member of the Jesus Seminar, dialogue about their respective views of the resurrection of Jesus. Including in the book following a transcript of their dialogue are articles by various Biblical scholars analyzing on the respective approaches each scholar takes to interpret. Wright asserts that the resurrection was a historical, physical event, whereas Crossan asserts that the resurrection was a "parable" or metaphor created by the early followers of Jesus to describe their ongoing commitment to the sharing the message and ministry of Jesus. While the two scholars come at the topic from different perspectives and methodologies they both assert the significance and meaning of the resurrection stories found in the gospels and Paul's commentary in I Corinthians. I went into this book with one set of questions and came out with many more. But the search for understanding was worth it
