Summarizing the evidence, the apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians: “Among the first things I handed on to you was what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that he was buried, yes, that he was raised up on the third day according to the Scriptures; and that he appeared to Ceʹphas, and then to the Twelve.
وَبَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ تَرَاءَى لِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ خَمْسِ مِئَةِ أَخٍ دَفْعَةً وَاحِدَةً ،‏ مُعْظَمُهُمْ بَاقٍ حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ ،‏ وَلٰكِنَّ بَعْضَهُمْ رَقَدُوا .‏
