First to see resurrected Jesus

The first to see Jesus after his resurrection was Mary of Magadala. 65.186.177.151 (talk) 03:56, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No one did or could have seen Jesus after his resurrection, since that's an impossible event that didn't happen. The only claim that can be made is that "according to ... such-and-such happened", with appropriate citations. 2600:8802:5913:1700:61DC:AFDA:4675:4765 (talk) 22:24, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bad grammar

Does anybody else realize that this sentence lacks a subject?

In secular and liberal Christian scholarship asserts that religious experiences, such as the visionary appearances of Jesus and an inspired reading of the Biblical texts, gave the impetus to the belief in the exaltation of Jesus as a "fulfillment of the scriptures," and a resumption of the missionary activity of Jesus's followers.

I think the word "Christian" could be changed to "Christianity", and then "scholarship" would become the subject of the sentence. But as it stands, "In secular and liberal Christian scholarship" is a prepositional phrase, and the sentence has a predicate but no subject. Kk.urban (talk) 17:48, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just drop the word "In". 2600:8802:5913:1700:61DC:AFDA:4675:4765 (talk) 22:25, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
