The Empty Tomb
What does the empty tomb tell us about Jesus?
The resurrection of Jesus from the dead has been at the heart of the gospel message from the beginning. The empty tomb tells us that the grave could not hold Jesus. That he bodily rose from the grave.
The Bible teaches that Jesus was crucified on a Roman cross and then buried in a borrowed tomb. But, on the third day after his crucifixion, the women who had been followers went to his tomb and found it empty. They told the disciples, some of whom also went to the tomb and found it empty. And they left wondering what had happened to Jesus’ body?
Today, the empty tomb is accepted with little questions by most believers and is a core tenet of our faith. But I suspect that most of us never really invest much time and effort in understanding its importance. Why is the empty tomb significant in Christianity? Why is the empty tomb so central to each of the gospel narratives?
