And Quintilian, Lucian, and Josephus, who are all these very prominent ancient biographers and writers of history, have a lot of crossover in the way they describe how you should write history with the words that Luke uses at the beginning of his gospel, where he says, I'm interviewing eyewitnesses and I'm writing up an orderly account.

And so he's saying, you know, I'm going to use these methods that are expected as good history of my day. I'm not an eyewitness. So I'm going to try to find the people who are eyewitnesses. And I'm going to try to encapsulate this within a document that communicates what is being written.

No, the only ones from the ancient world that deny his resurrection are groups that come on afterwards that sometimes are described as Gnostics. And they're not necessarily just denying it for the reasons we might think they were. They're denying it because they have incorporated ideas of pagan philosophy where they believe that the spiritual is good and the physical is bad.

So if Jesus was crucified, he โ so let me back up. If Jesus is God, he cannot have a physical body. So they deny that he actually had a physicality to him. This is sometimes called docetism because docane in Greek means to seem. So these groups that we describe as the docetics โ They are denying that Jesus had a physical body. He only seemed to have a physical body.

And they wrote documents later on. So the Gospel of Peter, which comes around in, you know, second, third, fourth centuries, is being written. And it has Jesus kind of chilling on the cross because he's not really physical because he's divine and physical entities don't have physical bodies.

So we don't actually get like a concrete denial of his resurrection in that way until you get things like the Gospel of Barnabas in the Middle Ages, which is actually the document that Billy brought up to me in the conversation we had as the evidence that Jesus was never crucified, the Gospel of Barnabas. Well, the Gospel of Barnabas is 15th century. It paraphrases Dante's Inferno.
