Are you saying it's a mistranslation and arisen from the dead was actually a raisin from the bread?

I thought he was arisen from the bread.

That's why we have unleavened bread during passover.

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

You seem to know scripture, maybe you can answer a question that been bothering me for a while. Since Jesus is bread and the cross was made from wood, was the crucifixion essentially stapling bread to trees?

Grapes have a yeast on their skins iirc, so adding raisins to a flatbread would introduce yeast, making it risen

Roman wine at the time was watered down, sweetened with lead, and I think had herbs added. Not sure about Jewish wine then. But I say, rehydrate the raisins in wine and you're close enough.

Me when my best friend told me that in Islam, dogs were made from the Devil's spittle as he was frothing with glee at the prospect of seeing humans being eaten by lions:

I straight up told her I never thought the Quran could out-crazy Norse mythology, but where we are. I mean, we do have a story about the Æsir creating Kvasir from their spit, but that is no where close to being as metal as dogs being made from the spit of Satan. I was practically cackling.

does that mean that raisin bread is an entire Jesus?

If a human only has flesh and blood, sure. Where's the long hair?

Blood is what you get when you squeeze out the body. Wine is what you get (eventually) when you squeeze out the grape.

This is a fun opportunity to share that mainline church teachings consider each tiny drop or fragment of the precious blood and sacred host to contain Christ entirely. It's not exactly blood here, guts there.
