But on what evidence is the most miraculous phenomenon in religious history based?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  World-famous biblical scholar Geza Vermes has studied all the evidence that still remains, over two thousand years after Jesus Christ was reported to have risen from the dead. Examining the Jewish Bible, the New Testament and other accounts left to us, as well as contemporary attitudes to the afterlife, he takes us through each episode with a historian's focus: the crucifixion, the treatment of the body, the statements of the women who found the empty tomb, and the visions of Christ by his disciples. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Unravelling the true meaning conveyed in the Gospels, the Acts and St Paul, Vermes shines a new light on the developing faith in the risen Christ among the first followers of Jesus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  'The greatest Jesus scholar of his generation'\u003cbr\u003e  \u003ci\u003eSunday Telegraph\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cb\u003eGeza Vermes \u003c\/b\u003eis director of the Forum for Qumran Research at the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies.
