Episode summary:

Wintery Knight and Desert Rose review elements of the historical Jesus narratives that are accepted as reliable by the majority of historians. We evaluate several naturalistic explanations for these “minimal facts”. Did Jesus die on the cross, or did he just faint? Was Jesus crucified or was it someone else? Were the appearances only hallucinations? Is the resurrection a late legend? Did the disciples make it all up?
