Let the Rabbi Teach You

One frequent response of the Christian left to the recent "Lost Tomb of Jesus" special has been this: if we find Jesus' bones, then big deal!  The apostle Paul, however, in 1 Corinthians 15:16-19 states that it is, indeed, a very big deal.  He writes:

1 Corinthians 15:16 For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised. 17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If in this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.
