“Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?”
ἐγείρω
To raise up, to awaken, to arouse. Egeiro. He is not here He has risen. The resurrection is the pivot of history. Everything before it points to it. Everything after flows from it.
