What really happened during ‘Lost 40 Days’?
3D graphics bring ‘real Jesus’ to life for History Channel Easter program
Biblical accounts of what Jesus did on Earth for the 40 days between his resurrection on what is celebrated now across America as Easter and his ascension are sparse, but a new project by the History Channel, titled "Jesus: The Lost 40 Days," offers insight into one of the least-documented times in his life as a man.
The project explains that non-biblical sources could reveal "astonishing information and detail about these seemingly lost 40 days."
– – It is scheduled to premiere tonight at 9 p.m. EDT on History – –
The project is based on the work of Ray Downing and his 2010 History Channel Special, "The Real Face of Jesus" that attracted worldwide attention at its own premiere.

thought tonights show interesting especially the part you indicate the shroud plays in the resurrection of Jesus at the very moment he goes from ‘death’ to ‘life’. My problem is the fact that (1) a Christian “walk(s) by faith not by sight” and (2) the scriptures are clear in a number of translation Jesus was resurrected “in the spirit” and not ‘in the flesh’ making the material body unimportant in his resurrection. This is born out by the fact he would look differently to those people who saw him ie Mary thought he was a gardener the ’emanus’ incident where he was not recognized until he broke ‘bread’ add the fact he ‘vanished’ right then & there…when he ‘appeared’ in the upper room it was through locked doors (no material body could do this) time/space not withstanding! The body was NOT in the tomb but the linen cloths (scriptures indicates ‘cloths’ pluarl were..yet everytime Jesus appears he is fully clothed!
Your program slipped over these evidences that Jesus appeared in materialized bodies in order to prove he had been resurrected from the dead. How else would he prove that having been resurrected ‘ in the spirit’ which cannot be seen by human eyes?
This would be pretty much why the blow by:
“Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20 The Jews therefore said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21 But He was speaking of the temple of His body,” (John 2:19-21).
“And He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 “See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; touch Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” (Luke 24:38-39).
“When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, “Peace be with you.” 20 And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples therefore rejoiced when they saw the Lord,” (John 20:19-20).
