The resurrection of the Messiah : a narrative commentary on the Resurrection accounts in the four gospels / Francis J. Moloney, SDB. - 1 online resource.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The resurrection of the Messiah according to Mark (16:1-8) -- The resurrection of the Messiah according to Matthew (27:62-28:20) -- The resurrection of the Messiah according to Luke (24:1-53) -- The resurrection of the Messiah according to John (20:1-31; 21:1-25) -- The resurrection of the Messiah: historical and theological reflections.

"Taking inspiration from a different interpretative tradition, the classic work of Raymond Brown on the birth and death of the Messiah, Francis Moloney has provided a comprehensive narrative reading of the resurrection stories of all four Gospels, in close association with their passion narratives, to which they are the stunning response. The book traces how the four evangelists' different telling of the resurrection stories has "narrated" the action of God for Jesus, and the action of God and Jesus for all Christians in and through the early Church's belief and experience of the resurrection of Jesus. The final chapter discusses what we can recover about the events of Easter day and, more importantly, what these events meant then, and continue to mean today."--Back cover.
