Does Paul say when and where he was crucified, hung on a cross with nails or rope, who did it, who buried him and where, Paul doesn't write of those details but he didn't need to. It was common knowledge at the time and one of the Gospel writers, Luke, was an associate of Paul. who and how many saw him when he arose...Did these witnesses tell Paul personally? Paul does provide a list of persons, not all of them named, who saw the risen Jesus at one time or other. I've posted this already. See 1 Corinthians chapter 15. Did anyone witness the ascension; it was an ascension, wasn't it? That would be because heaven is in the sky? See these references: In the Epistle to the Romans (c 56-57),[1] Paul describes Christ as in heaven and in the abyss,[2] the earliest Christian reference to Jesus in heaven. The most influential account of the Ascension, and according to Robert W. Funk the earliest[3], is in the Acts of the Apostles 1:1-11, where Jesus is taken up bodily into heaven forty days after his resurrection, as witnessed by his apostles, after giving the Great Commission with a prophecy to return. In the Gospel of Luke, the Ascension[4] takes place on Easter Sunday evening.[5] The Gospel of John (c 90-100)[6] refers to Jesus returning to the Father.[7] In 1 Peter (c 90-110)[6], Jesus has ascended to heaven and is at God's right side.[8] Ephesians (c 90-100)[6] refers to Jesus ascending higher than all the heavens.[9] First Timothy (c 90-140)[6] describes Jesus as taken up in glory.[10] The traditional ending of Mark (see Mark 16) includes a summary of Luke's resurrection material and describes Jesus as being taken up into heaven and sitting at God's right hand.[11 en.wikipedia.org 9After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight. Acts of the Apostles, chapter 1 The Romans were pretty good record keepers, I would imagine they documented the story if they crucified a man of Jesus reputation.?? The Romans crucified a lot of people and I know of no records being kept of them.
