Ancient and modern scholars have written many thousands of pages on
resurrection in the New Testament. Fewer have examined the theme in
both pagan and Jewish texts, however, and the topic remains
inherently fascinating. John Granger Cook argues for two primary
hypotheses: First, there is no fundamental difference between
Paul's conception of the resurrection body and that of the Gospels;
and second, the resurrection and translation stories of Greco-Roman
antiquity probably help explain the willingness of Mediterranean
people to gradually accept the Gospel of a crucified and risen
savior. The use of (egeiro, wake/rise) and (anistemi, rise) and the
bodily nature of resurrection in ancient Judaism and paganism
warrant the first hypothesis. The second hypothesis is more
speculative, but the Christian apologists' comparisons of pagan
narratives with those of the New Testament renders it feasible.
