“He was rejected by the chief priests and scribes, and in a travesty of justice, executed—just like so many other prophets before Him. But this time something went desperately wrong, at least from the perspective of the Establishment Men. This time, the executed prophet did something no one else had been able to do: come back from the dead. This made Him very difficult to deal with. Now He is ruling from the right hand of the Father, and is entirely out of their reach.”
