More on visions and dreams from the Bible texts.
Many of the major events in the Bible were either visions or dreams or portrayed through them such as the Virgin birth of Christ, the warning to the Magi not to return to Herod, the Transfiguration of Jesus, the sighting of Moses and Elias and God. Hearing voices and seeing Prophets and Transfiguration sand receiving warnings or information were often relayed through such visions and dreams where both voices were heard, conversations heard and visions seen but they were not in the real world but in the world of the dream and or vision.
Dreams, visions.
Joseph was told in a dream that Jesus was born of the Holy Spirit
Matthew 1:20,24 NIV
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.
The Transfiguration was mentioned as a ‘vision’
Matthew 17:1-3,5-6,9 KJV
[1] And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, [2] And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. [3] And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. [5] While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. [6] And when the disciples heard it , they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. [9] And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
The Three Wise men were warned by God in a dream not to return to Herod thus saving Jesus life.
Matthew 2:1,8,11-12 KJV
[1] Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, [8] And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him , bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also. [11] And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh. [12] And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
Joseph returned to Israel after fleeing to Egypt after receiving instructions in a dream from an angel. The angel spoke in the dream.
Matthew 2:19-21 KJV
[19] But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, [20] Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life. [21] And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
Birth of John the Baptist was told Zacharias by an angel in a ‘vision’.
Luke 1:5,7,11-14,22 KJV
[5] There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth. [7] And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years. [11] And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense. [12] And when Zacharias saw him , he was troubled, and fear fell upon him. [13] But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. [14] And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. [22] And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.
Taking just these examples alone into account, it is perfectly reasonable, rational and logical to conclude that the resurrection was also a vision.
