Summary

While evidence for Christ’s resurrection abounds, there are still those who posit alternative explanations for the empty tomb. In On the Resurrection, Volume 2: Refutations, Gary Habermas offers detailed analyses and rebuttals of the alternate theories surrounding Jesus’s resurrection.

Comprehensive in scope, On the Resurrection, Volume 2: Refutations addresses topics such as:

• Second-century texts that seem to challenge the resurrection
• Hume’s arguments against miracles
• The naturalism and skepticism of nineteenth-century German liberalism
• Alternative theories such as the disciples or others stealing the body, the “swoon” theory, hallucinations, and mythological understanding

Habermas engages critically with the arguments and offers a comprehensive apologetic for the reality of Christ’s resurrection.

Published in four volumes, On the Resurrection serves as Gary R. Habermas’s magnum opus – a comprehensive defense of the authenticity of Jesus Christ’s resurrection, built from Habermas’s lifetime of scholarly study.
