A single day in AD 30:
The day that changed everything.
Five women rose in the dark of a Sunday morning on Nisan 18, AD 30. They had agreed to meet together in the most densely populated city in the Roman Empire to perform a necessary but cheerless and gruesome task.
Two of them were relatives of the deceased man; each of the other three had been healed by his touch. Their mission was critical. In the rush to entomb their Rabbi by nightfall three and a half days earlier, a crucial step had been omitted—that of applying oils to his burial shroud.
The women had prepared the oils as soon as possible and carried them in small alabastra, but they had been excessively delayed. Not one but two intervening Sabbaths had postponed their graveside visit until that particular morning.
They knew the stench inside the cave-like tomb would be unbearable, but their love compelled them to honor the man they grieved so deeply.
They didn’t know that Roman soldiers had been posted to guard the doubly sealed tomb.
They didn’t know that the stone over the tomb entrance weighed about three-quarters of a ton.
But then the sun broke.
This is their story—and his.
Dawn is the complete account of the resurrection of Jesus Christ—in which all four gospels are reconciled and merged. Part One is a dramatized historical narrative with dialogue and many historical details added, highlighting the emotions and movements of the people involved. Part Two is an integration of all the Bible verses concerning the resurrection, as though it were written by only one author. Part Three is a deep exploration of the people, their relationships, the places, and the chronology of the events.
This book will astound you with the drama and the beauty of the most dramatic event in history.
