This post shares the title of Archbishop Fulton Sheen's fifty-fourth chapter in his seminal work, "Life of Christ." The chapter begins: "in the history of the world, only one tomb has ever had a rock rolled before it, and a soldier set to watch it to prevent a dead man within from rising…." An intriguing beginning to be sure, but Archbishop Sheen leaves the full weight of his title to tantelize us, leaving us to fill in, what exactly is meant by "the earth's most serious wound." It is indeed a great challenge from a great mind. I invite your comments. Over the next several posts, I add my thoughts regarding its meaning.
N.B., if you are looking for great post-Easter reading, I would suggest "Life of Christ" by Fulton J. Sheen.
