Interesting Facts
This final installment in the Jesus trilogy addresses what Christians consider the most theologically significant events in human history—the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. While the crucifixion represented the apparent defeat of Jesus by His enemies, Christians believe the resurrection demonstrated His divine nature and power over death. The comic portrays how witnessing these events transformed Jesus' followers, convincing them of His divinity and empowering them to begin spreading His message.
The comic includes a map of ancient Israel, helping readers visualize the geography of the Holy Land during Jesus' time. This educational element provides important context, showing the relationship between key locations like Nazareth (Jesus' hometown), Jerusalem (where the crucifixion took place), and the Sea of Galilee (where much of His ministry occurred). Such visual aids help contemporary readers better understand the biblical narrative within its historical and geographical setting.
In the conclusion, the comic explains how the experiences of Jesus' early disciples formed the foundation for what would become Christianity, now the world's largest religion with over 2.5 billion adherents. It notes that the Bible continues to be translated into different languages worldwide so Christians everywhere can read these foundational stories—reflecting the ongoing mission of the Bible Society, the comic's publisher, which works to make Scripture accessible across linguistic and cultural barriers.
Tagalog Translation - Interesting Facts (Mga Kawili-wiling Impormasyon)
Ang huling kabanata ng trilogy ni Jesus ay tumatalakay sa mga pangyayaring itinuturing ng mga Kristiyano bilang pinakamahalagang teolohikal na kaganapan sa kasaysayan ng tao—ang kamatayan at muling pagkabuhay ni Jesucristo. Bagaman ang pagpapako sa krus ay kumakatawan sa kapansin-pansing pagkatalo ni Jesus sa Kanyang mga kaaway, naniniwala ang mga Kristiyano na ang pagkabuhay na muli ay nagpakita ng Kanyang banal na kalikasan at kapangyarihan laban sa kamatayan. Ipinakikita ng komiks kung paano binago ng mga kaganapang ito ang mga tagasunod ni Jesus, na nagpatibay sa kanila ng Kanyang pagka-Diyos at nagbigay sa kanila ng kakayahan na simulan ang pagpapalaganap ng Kanyang mensahe.
Kasama sa komiks ang isang mapa ng sinaunang Israel, na tumutulong sa mga mambabasa na makita ang heograpiya ng Banal na Lupain noong panahon ni Jesus. Ang pang-edukasyong elementong ito ay nagbibigay ng mahalagang konteksto, na nagpapakita ng kaugnayan sa pagitan ng mga pangunahing lokasyon tulad ng Nazaret (bayan ni Jesus), Jerusalem (kung saan naganap ang pagpapako sa krus), at ang Dagat ng Galilea (kung saan naganap ang marami sa Kanyang ministeryo). Ang mga ganitong visual aids ay tumutulong sa mga modernong mambabasa na mas maintindihan ang salaysay sa Bibliya sa loob ng pagkakatatag nito sa kasaysayan at heograpiya.
Sa konklusyon, ipinaliliwanag ng komiks kung paano nabuo ang mga karanasan ng mga unang disipulo ni Jesus ang pundasyon para sa magiging Kristiyanismo, ngayon ang pinakamalaking relihiyon sa mundo na may mahigit 2.5 bilyong tagasunod. Nabanggit dito na ang Bibliya ay patuloy na isinalin sa iba't ibang wika sa buong mundo upang mabasa ng mga Kristiyano sa lahat ng dako ang mga pangunahing kwentong ito—na sumasalamin sa patuloy na misyon ng Bible Society, ang tagapaglathala ng komiks, na nagsusumikap na gawing accessible ang Kasulatan sa kabila ng mga hadlang sa wika at kultura.
