Resurrection on Trial A Judicial Inquiry into the Christian Claim of the Resurrection of Jesus

This unique Catholic book examines the life, death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ as a formal legal and historical case rather than simply as a matter of theology. Using a trial-lawyer approach, the author evaluates biblical and early historical sources, eyewitness testimony, alternative explanations for the Resurrection, the experiences of the early disciples, the development of Christian belief, and the relationship between the Resurrection and scientific reasoning. Presented like a Supreme Court opinion, the book considers arguments from both believers and skeptics and seeks to assess them through evidence, logic, and careful reasoning. It is intended to strengthen believers’ understanding of their faith while giving skeptics and seekers a serious, structured examination of the historical claims surrounding the Resurrection.
