Excerpt from Observations on the History and Evidences of the Resurrection of Jesus ChristBut as the resurrection's having been fully proved to the apostles, though absolutely necessary, yet is not of itself sufficient to authorize at this time and establish the faith of a Christian, I imagined, that what I had alreadywritten would be imperfect, at least, if not al together useless, unless I added some arguments and reasons'i had'to offer, to 'induce us, who live at the distance of seventeen hundred years from the date of that miraculous event,'to believe that Christ is risen from the dead. These reasons, therefore, I have thought proper to subjoin under two heads, viz thetestimony of the chosen Witnesses of the Resurrection recorded in-tlie Scriptures, and the Existence of the Christian Religion.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
