Abstract
This research outlines
the concept of resurrection from the ancient Hebrew Torah to Rabbinic Judaism
and Christianity according to authoritative and linguistically accurate
scriptures accompanied by English translations. Although some contemporary
scholars are of the opinion that resurrection is vaguely portrayed in the
Hebrew Torah, our research into the ancient texts offers quotes and provides
proofs to the contrary. With the passing time, the concept of the resurrection
grew even stronger and became one of the most important doctrines of Judaism,
enjoined as one of the thirteen articles of faith by Maimonides in the Mishnah.
Imitative of the Jewish concept of God reaching out to save Israelites from gehenna,
Jesus’ crucifixion and death for the sins of the world, resurrection on the
third day, descend into the hells and subsequent rise into heavens became the essential
foundation of Christianity, with Christ's resurrection as the impetus for the
resurrection of those who believe in him. According to this Pauline theology,
Christian faith is based upon the resurrection of Jesus and the hope for a life
after death.
