Two of today's most important and popular New Testament scholars, John Dominic Crossan and N. T. Wright, here air their very different understandings of the historical reality and theological meaning of Jesus' resurrection. The book highlights the points of agreement and disagreement between them and explores the many attendant issues. The book brings two leading lights in Jesus studies together for a long-overdue conversation with one another and with significant scholars from other disciplines. Along with Crossan and Wright, contributors include William Lane Craig, Craig A. Evans, R. Douglas Geivett, Gary R. Habermas, Ted Peters, Charles L. Quarles, Alan F. Segal and Robert B. Stewart.
