Was Jesus Buried – And If So How?

Was Jesus Buried – And If So How?

Was Jesus buried, and if so, was it in a tomb, a trench grave, or in some other way? This is the question (or set of related questions) that Answers in Genesis BUSTED! is pondering at present.

The burial of Jesusย is a topic that I have long found fascinating. When the relevant volume of the Encyclopedia of the Bible and its Reception comes out later this year, there will be a multi-author article on the reception history of those stories, to which I contributed a section.ย But given the nature of the work for which itย was written, that articleย wonโ€™t beย focused on the historical question.ย Theย latter isย a topic to which I hope to find time to return at some point in the future as a focus of research.

In the mean time, Iโ€™ll keep mentioning it from time to time here on the blog โ€“ and linking to any mentions or discussions of the topic elsewhere that I notice and which seem worth sharing.
