Theological / Devotional

Children of the resurrection. A Hebrew idiomatic expression carried over into the Greek, and here parallel with the expression “the children of God.” “Children of the resurrection” means, simply, those raised from the dead. They have been given life again by the same power that originally gave them life. Their entire being has been reconstituted for life in a new world.
