“Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.”
This is why it is said: 'Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you' — the citation (possibly from a baptismal hymn) calls the community: egeirō ('wake up,' 'rise'), anistēmi ('arise') ek tōn nekrōn ('from the dead'), and epiphainō ('Christ will shine upon you,' illuminate you), eschatological wakefulness.
