John 11:25
King James Version
7 Jun 2026
“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:”
ἀνάστασις
Ana — up again. Stasis — standing. To stand up again. Jesus does not say He will cause resurrection. He says I am the resurrection. He is not a mechanism through which life returns — He is the source of life itself. Wherever He is, death cannot have the final word.
ζάω
he will live,

To live, to be alive. Zao. I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live. Life in Scripture is always relational. To live is to be connected to the source of life.
