Did Jesus Really Rise From the Dead? Lee Strobel & John Burke Examine the Evidence

Did Jesus Christ really rise from the dead? Is the resurrection merely a matter of faith, or can history, ancient manuscripts, and medical research help us understand what happened? In this compelling discussion, Lee Strobel and John Burke examine the crucifixion of Jesus, the historical evidence surrounding His death, the Old Testament prophecies associated with the Messiah, and the significance of the resurrection. From the brutal reality of Roman crucifixion to the prophecies discussed in Isaiah 53, Psalm 22, Micah 5:2, and Daniel 9, this conversation explores how Christians connect the events of Jesus’ life and death with the promises recorded centuries earlier. The discussion also examines the significance of the Dead Sea Scrolls, historical references to Jesus’ execution, the Jewish sacrificial system, and the Christian belief that Jesus’ death provides forgiveness for humanity’s sins. But how strong are these arguments? What can historical sources establish, what remains a matter of interpretation, and why does the resurrection remain central to Christianity? Whether you are a committed Christian, a skeptic, or someone searching for answers about Jesus, this conversation invites you to examine the claims and think deeply about the evidence. *WATCH UNTIL THE END* and join the discussion: Do you believe the historical and biblical evidence supports the resurrection of Jesus Christ?
