recursion          When a {function} (or {procedure})       calls itself.   Such a function is called "recursive".   If the       call is via one or more other functions then this group of       functions are called "mutually recursive".          If a function will always call itself, however it is called,       then it will never terminate.   Usually however, it first       performs some test on its arguments to check for a "base case"       - a condition under which it can return a value without       calling itself.          The {canonical} example of a recursive function is       {factorial}:          factorial 0 = 1       factorial n = n * factorial (n-1)          {Functional programming languages} rely heavily on recursion,       using it where a {procedural language} would use {iteration}.          See also {recursion}, {recursive definition}, {tail recursion}.          [{Jargon File}]          (1996-05-11)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Resurrection of Christ       one of the cardinal facts and doctrines of the gospel. If Christ       be not risen, our faith is vain (1 Cor. 15:14). The whole of the       New Testament revelation rests on this as an historical fact. On       the day of Pentecost Peter argued the necessity of Christ's       resurrection from the prediction in Ps. 16 (Acts 2:24-28). In       his own discourses, also, our Lord clearly intimates his       resurrection (Matt. 20:19; Mark 9:9; 14:28; Luke 18:33; John       2:19-22).                The evangelists give circumstantial accounts of the facts       connected with that event, and the apostles, also, in their       public teaching largely insist upon it. Ten different       appearances of our risen Lord are recorded in the New Testament.       They may be arranged as follows:                (1.) To Mary Magdalene at the sepulchre alone. This is       recorded at length only by John (20:11-18), and alluded to by       Mark (16:9-11).                (2.) To certain women, "the other Mary," Salome, Joanna, and       others, as they returned from the sepulchre. Matthew (28:1-10)       alone gives an account of this. (Comp. Mark 16:1-8, and Luke       24:1-11.)                (3.) To Simon Peter alone on the day of the resurrection. (See       Luke 24:34; 1 Cor. 15:5.)                (4.) To the two disciples on the way to Emmaus on the day of       the resurrection, recorded fully only by Luke (24:13-35. Comp.       Mark 16:12, 13).                (5.) To the ten disciples (Thomas being absent) and others       "with them," at Jerusalem on the evening of the resurrection       day. One of the evangelists gives an account of this appearance,       John (20:19-24).                (6.) To the disciples again (Thomas being present) at       Jerusalem (Mark 16:14-18; Luke 24:33-40; John 20:26-28. See also       1 Cor. 15:5).                (7.) To the disciples when fishing at the Sea of Galilee. Of       this appearance also John (21:1-23) alone gives an account.                (8.) To the eleven, and above 500 brethren at once, at an       appointed place in Galilee (1 Cor. 15:6; comp. Matt. 28:16-20).                (9.) To James, but under what circumstances we are not       informed (1 Cor. 15:7).                (10.) To the apostles immediately before the ascension. They       accompanied him from Jerusalem to Mount Olivet, and there they       saw him ascend "till a cloud received him out of their sight"       (Mark 16:19; Luke 24:50-52; Acts 1:4-10).                It is worthy of note that it is distinctly related that on       most of these occasions our Lord afforded his disciples the       amplest opportunity of testing the fact of his resurrection. He       conversed with them face to face. They touched him (Matt. 28:9;       Luke 24:39; John 20:27), and he ate bread with them (Luke 24:42,       43; John 21:12, 13).                (11.) In addition to the above, mention might be made of       Christ's manifestation of himself to Paul at Damascus, who       speaks of it as an appearance of the risen Saviour (Acts 9:3-9,       17; 1 Cor. 15:8; 9:1).                It is implied in the words of Luke (Acts 1:3) that there may       have been other appearances of which we have no record.                The resurrection is spoken of as the act (1) of God the Father       (Ps. 16:10; Acts 2:24; 3:15; Rom. 8:11; Eph. 1:20; Col. 2:12;       Heb. 13:20); (2) of Christ himself (John 2:19; 10:18); and (3)       of the Holy Spirit (1 Peter 3:18).                The resurrection is a public testimony of Christ's release       from his undertaking as surety, and an evidence of the Father's       acceptance of his work of redemption. It is a victory over death       and the grave for all his followers.                The importance of Christ's resurrection will be seen when we       consider that if he rose the gospel is true, and if he rose not       it is false. His resurrection from the dead makes it manifest       that his sacrifice was accepted. Our justification was secured       by his obedience to the death, and therefore he was raised from       the dead (Rom. 4:25). His resurrection is a proof that he made a       full atonement for our sins, that his sacrifice was accepted as       a satisfaction to divine justice, and his blood a ransom for       sinners. It is also a pledge and an earnest of the resurrection       of all believers (Rom. 8:11; 1 Cor. 6:14; 15:47-49; Phil. 3:21;       1 John 3:2). As he lives, they shall live also.                It proved him to be the Son of God, inasmuch as it       authenticated all his claims (John 2:19; 10:17). "If Christ did       not rise, the whole scheme of redemption is a failure, and all       the predictions and anticipations of its glorious results for       time and for eternity, for men and for angels of every rank and       order, are proved to be chimeras. 'But now is Christ risen from       the dead, and become the first-fruits of them that slept.'       Therefore the Bible is true from Genesis to Revelation. The       kingdom of darkness has been overthrown, Satan has fallen as       lightning from heaven, and the triumph of truth over error, of       good over evil, of happiness over misery is for ever secured."       Hodge.                With reference to the report which the Roman soldiers were       bribed (Matt. 28:12-14) to circulate concerning Christ's       resurrection, "his disciples came by night and stole him away       while we slept," Matthew Henry in his "Commentary," under John       20:1-10, fittingly remarks, "The grave-clothes in which Christ       had been buried were found in very good order, which serves for       an evidence that his body was not 'stolen away while men slept.'       Robbers of tombs have been known to take away 'the clothes' and       leave the body; but none ever took away 'the body' and left the       clothes, especially when they were 'fine linen' and new (Mark       15:46). Any one would rather choose to carry a dead body in its       clothes than naked. Or if they that were supposed to have stolen       it would have left the grave-clothes behind, yet it cannot be       supposed they would find leisure to 'fold up the linen.'"
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Resurrection of the dead       will be simultaneous both of the just and the unjust (Dan. 12:2;       John 5:28, 29; Rom. 2:6-16; 2 Thess. 1:6-10). The qualities of       the resurrection body will be different from those of the body       laid in the grave (1 Cor. 15:53, 54; Phil. 3:21); but its       identity will nevertheless be preserved. It will still be the       same body (1 Cor. 15:42-44) which rises again.                As to the nature of the resurrection body, (1) it will be       spiritual (1 Cor. 15:44), i.e., a body adapted to the use of the       soul in its glorified state, and to all the conditions of the       heavenly state; (2) glorious, incorruptible, and powerful (54);       (3) like unto the glorified body of Christ (Phil. 3:21); and (4)       immortal (Rev. 21:4).                Christ's resurrection secures and illustrates that of his       people. "(1.) Because his resurrection seals and consummates his       redemptive power; and the redemption of our persons involves the       redemption of our bodies (Rom. 8:23). (2.) Because of our       federal and vital union with Christ (1 Cor. 15:21, 22; 1 Thess.       4:14). (3.) Because of his Spirit which dwells in us making our       bodies his members (1 Cor. 6:15; Rom. 8:11). (4.) Because Christ       by covenant is Lord both of the living and the dead (Rom. 14:9).       This same federal and vital union of the Christian with Christ       likewise causes the resurrection of the believer to be similar       to as well as consequent upon that of Christ (1 Cor. 15:49;       Phil. 3:21; 1 John 3:2)."
