View of the Resurrection

Front

How do some Progressive theologians treat the bodily resurrection of Jesus?

Back

Many view the resurrection metaphorically, as the 'rising up' of Jesus' spirit in the lives of his followers rather than a literal physical event.

Explanation

While views vary, the necessity of the literal empty tomb is often downplayed in favor of the 'truth' of the disciples' renewed hope.
