Local Knowledge of Jesus’ Empty Tomb, Question of the week by Dr. Craig


Greetings Dr. Craig!
I read some of your articles addressing the resurrection of Jesus and wanted to thank you first of all for your great work and effort.
Yet I noticed that - at least in the works I read - a specific argument was seemed not to be addressed, which my New Testament professor, who does not believe in the empty tomb, once used against a bodily resurrection of Jesus. The argument was: If the location of the tomb of Jesus was known to the disciples, it would have been remembered and would have likely become some sort of an early pilgrimage destination. Yet there is no evidence for any such thing, thus, it is unlikely that the disciples knew the tomb, therefore, they could have not known whether the tomb was empty or not.
So what is your take on this?
Thank you very much!
Simon
