"If you were going to make up a story about an empty tomb in the first century, you would not make your first witnesses women. You can see evidence of this even in the Gospels; in Luke's Gospel, when the women come back and report what the angel told them, the disciples take it as an idle tale and don't believe the women." —Fr. Isaac Morales, O.P. ————————— This quote is from Fr. Morales' recent lecture, "Did Jesus Really Rise From the Dead? A Historical Investigation."
