In about 1995 the modern superstring theory was announced. It was revolutionary. It said that there were 11 dimensions. Bill Bryson, in his book, “A Short History of Nearly Everything”, tells us that these dimensions were the three that we already knew about – length, breadth and depth – plus time (which we also knew about). There are also another 7 dimensions that are unknowable to us. How staggering? Scientific progress. Well except of course God knows all about the universe. From the Bible, a source of considerable scientific knowledge, a Hebrew sage named Nachmanides, living in Spain in the 12th Century, told us that there were 10 dimensions (4 known to us and 6 that were unknowable). He’s probably right – 10 not 11. Chapter 1 of the Book of Genesis was his source. So the 1995 announcement was really very old news. The story of Jesus, from the resurrection until his return to heaven, is repeatedly the story of these other dimensions unknoweable to us - known only to God. This programme is about Jesus and the superstring theory – and the resurrection of Jesus after his crucifixion.
