Jesus's resurrection from the dead following his crucifixion forms the basis for Christianity. The Third Day recounts the final days of Jesus Christ—including his resurrection and ascension into heaven, which fulfilled prophesy from the Old Testament in the Bible. Combining dramatic re-enactments with commentary from modern scholars, the last days of Jesus are reconstructed from biblical and alternate historical documentation, offering multiple perspectives on the condemnation, crucifixion, and (for some) perplexing events that happened afterward, including—according to various accounts—an empty tomb (under guard by Roman soldiers) and eyewitness testimonies of his physical presence. For Christians, of course, this is a matter of faith: those who believe will stand resolute, while skeptics will continue to demand proof that may in fact be lost in the sands of time. Regardless, this documentary explores the perspectives of the apostles of Christ and ancient historians to bring a somewhat objective frame to questions that have become increasingly subjective over the years.
