Benchmark - Death and Resurrection in the Gospel of John

Q Write a paper of 1000-1250 words that discusses the meaning of the death and resurrection of Jesus in the Gospel of John. While you should use other biblical texts to provide background and support for your arguments, the focus of the paper should be on the presentation of Jesus's death and resurrection in John 18-21. 1. To achieve a robust analysis, ensure focus is placed on the significance of the passage's events (e.g., the timing of Jesus's death at Passover, the empty tomb) and dialogue (e.g., Jesus with Pilate, Jesus's statements from the cross, Jesus's conversation with Peter before and after his death and resurrection). 2. To achieve theological synthesis, be sure to answer why it was necessary for Jesus to die and rise again, as well as what he accomplished through his death and resurrection. Along with the Bible and the textbook, use one other academic source. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the Turabian Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

The suggestion about a single individual being sacrificed by the Jews for not killing several people had been done by the high priest named Caiaphas (John 18:14). This is because there had been a notion of the Jewish priests mostly to not kill to many people unnecessarily. The reason for this notion could be the aspect that killing too many individuals would never be the will of God as God loves all His children.
