The resurrection of Jesus Christ, as recorded in Luke 24:1–12, is presented as a historical reality confirmed by eyewitness testimony, particularly from women—Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James—whose inclusion as first witnesses underscores the authenticity of the account, defying ancient cultural norms. The passage emphasizes that the resurrection was not a random event but the fulfillment of Christ's own prophetic words, calling believers to remember His teachings and trust in the reliability of Scripture. The disciples' initial disbelief and Peter's subsequent investigation illustrate the nature of faith: not blind acceptance, but a seeking heart that examines the evidence and is transformed by the truth. This truth, grounded in the risen Lord, offers assurance, hope, and a renewed reverence for God's Word, calling believers to live with joyful confidence, knowing that life is found only in Christ, the living one, not in the dead things of this world.
