Christmas doesn\u2019t pose the same challenge \u2013 one may doubt or even deny the historicity of the infancy narratives, appreciating them as the sorts of stories ancient people were prone to tell to highlight an individual\u2019s significance. Jesus\u2019 birth itself is not seriously doubted, and so a historical core can still be posited. But when it comes to Easter, the question of whether the tomb was empty, if so why, and what if anything that has to do with Christian faith in the resurrection proves much less straightforward to address. The irony is that this weekend involves the most certain bedrock of our historical information about Jesus \u2013 the crucifixion \u2013 and an event that some would say cannot even be appropriately studied using the tools of historical inquiry at all.<\/p>\n<p>I hope to gather here some historical and theological blog entries that are relevant to the subject. But let me begin by sharing my class notes on the <a href=\"http:\/\/blue.butler.edu\/~jfmcgrat\/jesus\/cross.htm\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\">death<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/blue.butler.edu\/~jfmcgrat\/jesus\/cross.htm#burial\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\">burial<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/blue.butler.edu\/~jfmcgrat\/jesus\/resurrection.htm\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\">resurrection<\/a> from my course on the historical Jesus. I\u2019d love to know if anyone finds them useful \u2013 or has constructive criticism to offer. Also worth checking out is the Biblical Archaeological Review\u2019s offerings for this occasion: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bib-arch.org\/easter\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\"
