What clues did the disciples miss about the resurrection?

Answered in 1 source

The disciples missed key prophecies, Jesus' own teachings, and miracles indicating His resurrection.

The disciples failed to understand multiple clues regarding the resurrection of Christ, despite being in close proximity to Jesus' ministry. Prophecies such as those in Psalm 16 foretold His rising, yet they were confused post-resurrection because they had not yet comprehended the Scriptures' teachings (John 20:9). Moreover, Jesus explicitly taught them aboutHis resurrection multiple times (Matthew 16:21), and He performed miracles that demonstrated His authority over death, such as raising Lazarus. However, their grief and confusion clouded their understanding, showing that spiritual revelation was necessary for them to truly grasp the significance of these clues and realize that Jesus must indeed rise from the dead.
