The New Testament resurrection narratives must be understood in both their similarities and their differences. Norman Perrin was a leading interpreter of the Gospels. In this book he relates each Synoptic account of the resurrection of Jesus to the theology of its Evangelist resulting in a new understanding of the importance of the Easter celebration. This book will illumine lay readers, clergy, and all students of the New Testament.

Endorsements

"This book presents in simple form the profound meaning of the Resurrection in the Synoptic Gospels.... Combining clear scholarship with sincere faith, this book makes an excellent contribution to the understanding of a crucial issue."
— William Baird, Brite Divinity School, Texas Christian University, The Disciple

"It is a brief, moving testimony to the grace of God and Christian courage. It is clear evidence that disciplined thought in the mind of a Christian scholar can lead to a witness to the power of God in Christ."
— St. Luke's Journal

"Perrin wrote this book in an effort to answer for students, pastors, and laymen the question 'what are the gospel writers trying to say to us?' The result is a stimulating, non-technical work which should be useful both in the classroom and in adult discussion groups which are ready to probe deeply into the message of the gospels."
— R. Alan Culpepper, Review and Expositor
