What is Resurrection?
Resurrection is the concept of coming back to life after death. In a number of ancient religions, a dying-and-rising god is a deity which dies and resurrects. The death and resurrection of Jesus, an example of resurrection, is the central focus of Christianity. As a religious concept, it is used in

The resurrection of the dead is a standard eschatological belief in the Abrahamic religions.
