Abstract

The study sees in Daniel 12:1-3 the only unambiguous reference to resurrection in the Hebrew Scriptures. The intertestamental literature is found to give evidence to a variety of understandings of both resurrection and immortality of the soul. The New Testament texts are described as being witness to an event and as theological interpretation. A tendency to emphasize immortality of the soul is traced from selected Church Fathers through Aquinas to Schleiermacher. The 20th century views of Bultmann, Pannenberg and Fisher (process theology) are considered. The conclusion sees resurrection as held in tension both as a future hope and as present reality in congregational life, based on 'God raised Jesus from the dead' understood as witness to an event and as theological reflection.
