What if we pretended that the gospels were stories with beginning, middle, and end; set in a world similar to our own; and requiring consistent character development?How would the image of crucifixion be understood by a Palestinian population in the First Century, C.E.?Why do Peter and John witness Jesus raising a dead child to life in one scene, and in the next, ask each other what resurrection means?How does the story of Lazarus originate from a parable about a rich man who is desolate in the afterlife while a poor man is comforted?How does Judas become more and more villainous as stories about him are retold?How does the resurrection myth of the 19th Century Lakota resemble the Christian myth?Why does Peter strike a man dead for refusing to share his wealth with members of a Christian commune?Why is Peter more miraculous than Paul?These are just a few of the questions raised by this provocative and ground-breaking essay which proves that literary study can be truly challenging.
