Within the body of [[Christianity|Christian]] beliefs, the alleged '''resurrection of Jesus''' is a core biblical story on which much of Christian doctrine, ritual and theology depend. According to the [[New Testament]], [[Jesus]] was [[Crucifixion|crucified]], died, buried in a tomb and resurrected on the third<ref>That is, two days later.</ref> day.<ref>{{bibleref|John|19:30–31|NIV}}, {{bibleref|Mark|16:1|NIV}}, {{bibleref|Mark|16:6|NIV}}</ref> This event is commemorated annually by Christians during [[Easter]].
Groups such as [[Jews]], [[Muslims]], [[Bahá'í Faith|Bahá'í]]s, and other non-Christians, as well as some [[Liberal Christianity|liberal Christians]], dispute whether Jesus actually rose from the dead. Muslims do not believe that it was Jesus that was crucified, but rather someone was put in his place and crucified, while God lifted Jesus up to the heavens. Arguments over death and resurrection claims occur at many religious [[debate]]s and [[interfaith|interfaith dialogues]].<ref>Lorenzen, Thorwald.
