The resurrection of Jesus is one of the most controversial Bible subjects there is.
The teaching that Jesus was crucified on Friday and arose early on Sunday morning is probably the most prevalent teaching there is. This work will show that Jesus did not die on the cross on Friday and arose on Sunday morning. It will also show that “Palm Sunday” is really not an event that took place on Sunday morning as most believe.
This is not a “harmony of the Gospels” but rather a step-by-step journey following Jesus from approximately midway through His three-year ministry to His ascension ten days before the Day of Pentecost.
It is a difficult task to present a “harmony of the Gospels” because of the differences found in the Gospels. A researcher must at times decide which Gospel he is going to follow because of these differences. It is impossible to completely follow Jesus in harmony with all the Gospel writers. At times I have had to make this decision during this work. I do not claim that this presentation is completely accurate as far as the harmony of the Gospels are concerned.
The intent of this work is not to examine all the teachings of Jesus as we follow Him to the cross. The purpose of this writing is to basically follow Jesus in the last year and a half of His ministry. Therefore, to examine each teaching and parable is not possible and keep to the original intent of this book. That belongs to another work yet to be done.
