Is the last supper line dominant?

Leonardo Da Vinci's painting of "The Last Supper" uses dominance to add depth to the depiction of Jesus and his disciples during the Passover Seder. Jesus is placed in a dominant position and the space setting him apart from his nearest disciples is emphasized. He is framed against the backdrop of the country. All objects before him are in order, all objects away from him are in disarray. The dominant position of Christ is emphasized by the empty space around him. This separation of space serves as a symbol of the solitary sacred action Jesus is willing to undertake.


What are the proofs that support Christ ressurection in the new testament?

The empty tomb is implied in the early tradition of the church. Paul gives an example of an early creed in 1Cor 15:3-7 which states Jesus was buried and rose again. Women were the discoverers of Jesus' empty tomb. Considering women in first century Palestine were low on the social ladder this is significant. Any legendary account would most likely have had male disciples discovering the empty tomb. This adds to the historicity of the account rather that its legendary status. The disciples were witnesses to the fact of the resurrection, look at Peters speech at Pentecost-- 'we are witnesses of the fact'. Nobody claimed that the tomb still contained Jesus' body. The burial / resurrection accounts in the gospels were written early after the events so are not subject legendary corruption.

What are diifferent Christian denominations and what do they believe about the resurrection?

All denominations of Christianity believe that Jesus rose from the dead. A few individual Christians may believe that Jesus did not literally rise from the dead, meaning that the disciples realized simply that death had not destroyed Jesus, but no modern denomination has this viewpoint as an official viewpoint. Jews say that the body of Jesus was taken away from the tomb on the night before Easter Sunday (thus the empty tomb), while Muslims say that Jesus was never crucified in the first place.
