Also, as far as I know, there is absolutely *NO*
reports of "saints" being resurrected in Jerusalem around the time of
Jesus's death (Matt 27:52-53). Wouldn't that have been noticed and

This is one of my favorite, (often ignored) implausibility in the four
pamphlets that comprise the 'gospels'.
It's hard to imagine a number of previously dead persons 'boogalooing' about

I think most Christians forget it's in there, since it's only recorded
by Matthew. A website I came across last week recorded the parallels

It was interesting how transparent "Matthew" was in trying to cast a
mythological air about Jesus.
