Abstract
AbstractThe importance of Good Friday for Christianity is summed up with exacting brevity in the second article of the Apostles' Creed: Jesus Christ “suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and was buried” (Traditional English Version). Divided into four elements, these ten words capture the vital core of Good Friday, by 1) affirming the reality of Jesus' suffering; 2) situating it in historical context by connection with a political figure; 3) verifying the cause, manner, and certainty of death; and 4) asserting Jesus' burial (which is relevant primarily for resurrection claims, which presuppose the crucifixion).
