About this ebook
The resurrection is doubtless one of the most important doctrines of the Christian faith. Without it we are left with a Jesus who was merely a great teacher, ahead of his time, yet far from divine. With it, however, we have undeniable proof of His divinity and a rock-solid hope for the future.
"The Resurrection: A Symposium" is a classic collection of essays by the theological heavyweights of the 19th century. Topics include the meaning of the resurrection for the saved and unsaved, defenses against common objections to the resurrection and the importance of the resurrection as the foundation of everything a Christian believes.

About the author
Alexander Maclaren (1826-1910) has been known for gen erations as the prince of preachers. He was born in Scotland and lived much of his life in England. His abilities to dissect a passage and to use analogies from nature and life have long been imitated. His sermons reveal his passion, spiritual insight, and intellectual power.
Dwight Lyman Moody was born in Northfield, Massachusetts on February 5, 1837. In 1858, Moody started a Sunday school in a converted saloon, and six years later became pastor of the newly opened Illinois Street Church in Chicago. In 1886, Moody was involved in the founding of the Chicago Evangelization Society, which was eventually renamed the Moody Bible Institute. He died on December 22, 1899, but before he did he preached to more than 100 million people. His legacy lives on in the Moody Bible Institute and the Moody Memorial Church. His works include Heaven, Prevailing Prayer, and Secret Power.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon was born in Kelvedon, Essex, England on June 19, 1834. His father and his grandfather were both pastors and at the age of twenty, he became the pastor of the New Park Street Church in London. The congregation quickly grew out of the building and moved to Exeter Hall. In 1861, the congregation moved to the newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle. During his lifetime, he published over thirty-five hundred sermons that filled 63 volumes. His series stands as the largest set of books by a single author in the history of Christianity. He also wrote Ploughman's Talk and The Treasury of David. During his last years, he suffered severe physical pain from a gout attack. He was growing increasing ill and died on January 31, 1892.
