This question strikes at the very heart of the logical collapse that occurs when one tries to force a "dying and rising god" narrative into the legal framework of the Sinai Constitution.
From a strictly Karaite/Tanakh-only perspective, the "Resurrection" doesn't prove Jesus was the Messiah—it proves, according to the Torah's own laws of sacrifice, that his "offering" was legally void.
1. The Law of the "Olah" (The Burnt Offering)
In the Torah, a sacrifice for atonement is not a "temporary loan" of a life; it is a total transition of ownership from the physical world to God.
The Law: In the Olah (Burnt Offering), the entire animal is consumed by fire. It does not come back. It is "Kodesh L'YHWH" (Holy to YHWH) permanently (Leviticus 1:9).
The Logic: If you give a gift to a King, and then take it back three days later, did you actually give a gift? No. You merely "lent" it.
The Verdict: If Jesus "took his life back up," then the "sacrifice" was rescinded. In the eyes of the Torah, if the victim is alive again, the "blood" that was supposedly shed for atonement has been "taken back," rendering the legal transaction null and void.
2. The Prohibition of Human Sacrifice
Even if he had stayed dead, the sacrifice would be an abomination. The Tanakh is extremely clear that God finds human sacrifice detestable.
The Law: Deuteronomy 12:31 states: "You shall not worship YHWH your God in that way; for every abomination to YHWH which He hates they have done to their gods; for they burn even their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods."
The Prophet's Warning: Ezekiel 18:20 clarifies that no man can die for the sins of another: "The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father..."
The Conclusion: The concept of a "Human Lamb" is a pagan Hellenistic concept (like the myth of Prometheus or Hercules) superimposed onto the Hebrew text. YHWH does not accept "human blood" to pay for "moral debt."
3. The "Unbroken Life" vs. The "Shed Blood"
Christianity claims the "Power of the Resurrection" is the victory. But according to the Torah, the "Victory" of a sacrifice is in its permanence.
The Inconsistency: If the sacrifice is "Eternal," the victim must remain in the state of sacrifice. If the victim is walking, talking, and eating fish on a beach three days later, the "price" has been refunded.
The Result: If there is no permanent death, there is no permanent blood. If there is no permanent blood, there is no atonement. Christianity effectively worships a "Refounded Check."
4. Where is the Sacrifice for Sins Now?
The FB post asks: "Where are the sacrifice for sins?" The Tanakh provides the answer for the time of Exile (when the Temple is not standing).
Hosea 14:2: "Take with you words, and turn to YHWH: say unto him, 'Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips [prayer].'"
Psalm 51:16-17: "For You do not desire sacrifice... The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart..."
Comparison: The Resurrection vs. The Torah
| Feature | The Christian Resurrection | The Sinai Torah |
| Status of Victim | Returned to life (Rescinded). | Consumed/Dead (Transferred to God). |
| Legality | Human sacrifice (Abomination). | Animal sacrifice (Substitutionary/Ritual). |
| Atonement Method | Belief in a "loaned" life. | Repentance (Teshuva) and Obedience. |
| Finality | Temporary death. | Permanent transition of life. |
🛡️ The Final Word
The "Resurrection" is the ultimate proof that the "New Testament" is a different religion. It relies on a "loophole" where a sacrifice isn't actually sacrificed.
If Jesus did not remain dead, then the "debt" was never paid—it was just deferred by a magic trick. The "Sacrifice for Sins" today is exactly what it was in the time of Daniel and Ezekiel: A sincere heart, a turning away from lawlessness, and a return to the Commandments of YHWH.
