OverviewVisions and apparitions of Jesus have been reported since the earliest days of Christianity, and it is widely known that such events are still being experienced. In this study of the phenomena, the author focuses on modern visions of Jesus, as described to him by 30 contemporary visionaries - most of them ordinary people without prior or subsequent experiences of this kind. He recounts each of the visions in detail, reviews recent biblical scholarship on the subject, and examines current literature on the psychology and neurology of visual hallucinations. He ultimately concludes that contemporary visions of Jesus represent genuine religious experiences of a mystical character and he calls for further discussion of their philosophical and theological implications.
