“O death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory? Christ is risen and life is freed, Christ is
risen and the tomb is emptied of the dead: for Christ, being risen from the
dead, has become the Leader and Reviver of those who had fallen asleep. To Him be glory and power for ever and ever.”—St.
John Chrysostom (Ca. 347-407), “The Easter Resurrection Homily”
The depiction of the Resurrection of Jesus in the accompanying image is by the
German painter and graphic artist Bernard Plockhorst (1825-1907).
