Corpus Christi - Crucifixion
Episode 1/12
Synopsis
Does the testimony of ancient historians confirm that of the evangelists? What do we learn from the bones of the one and only crucified ever discovered (in Jerusalem) and which also date from the 1st century AD? Do the discoveries of Qumran and the Dead Sea Scrolls allow us to make other hypotheses on the context and the historical dimension of the crucifixion? And who crucified Jesus: the Romans or the Jews as the Gospel according to John suggests? Do the texts tell the story of the time of Jesus or that of the evangelists who write one, two or three generations later and no doubt ultimately outside Palestine?
The Serie : A historical and scientific enquiry into the origins of the New Testament and the life of Jesus Christ involving specialists from all over the world.
