[QUOTE="JackRT, post: 74399786, member: 381486"] Christian doctrines are interpretations of scripture but it is well to know that the gospels themselves are "interpretative narratives" written decades after the fact by second or third generation believers. My own understanding is that in the days and weeks following the crucifixion, the apostles and disciples returned to Galilee in shock and disbelief at what had happened. However, it gradually dawned on them that, if the life and teachings of Jesus were to have any lasting impact, it could only happen by and through them. That is equally true of us today. They and we are the true resurrection. I believe that the resurrection stories in the gospels are attempts to express this idea as an allegory. [/QUOTE]
