The Revelation of the Risen Lord
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
This volume collects short studies designed as an introduction and supplement to The Gospel of the Resurrection. Brooke Foss Westcott notes, “It has been my aim in writing them to realize as distinctly as I could the characteristic teaching of each manifestation of the Risen Christ both in relation to the first disciples and in relation to ourselves.” The studies examine each manifestation to shed light on the circumstances under which the fact of the Resurrection was made known, and the Resurrection itself, along with the Christian Church that was founded upon belief in the Ascended Lord.
