For we know that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him. — Christ's resurrection is eschatological victory; his exaltation breaks death's cyclic tyranny irreversibly. The κυριότης (kyriotes, "dominion") of death is abolished—no restoration of his former death. This is the ground of believer confidence: union with the Risen One means participation in his triumph.
