Weeping Through Easter–A Historically Credible Reconstruction of What Most Likely Happened!

Here is my CORE view of Easter morning, based on a careful historical investigation of our sources. This is not the typical “skeptical” or “atheistic” view of things–but a careful analysis of how faith that Jesus was “raised from the dead” arose among his followers–not in Jerusalem on Easter, but…
