Strong's Lexicon exanastasis: Resurrection Original Word: ἐξανάστασις Word Origin: Derived from ἐκ (ek, "out of") and ἀνάστασις (anastasis, "resurrection") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "exanastasis," the concept of resurrection is present in the Hebrew Scriptures, particularly in terms like תְּחִיָּה (teḥiyyah, "revival" or "resurrection") as seen in passages like Daniel 12:2. Usage: The term "exanastasis" specifically refers to a resurrection that is distinct or out of the ordinary. It is used in the New Testament to denote a particular kind of resurrection, often interpreted as a resurrection to eternal life or a special resurrection of the righteous. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of resurrection was not widely accepted, as many believed in a more spiritual afterlife rather than a physical resurrection. However, within Jewish thought, particularly among the Pharisees, the belief in a bodily resurrection was prevalent. The early Christian community, emerging from this Jewish context, held firmly to the belief in the resurrection of the dead, with Jesus Christ's resurrection being the cornerstone of their faith. The term "exanastasis" would have resonated with early Christians as it encapsulated the hope of a future resurrection that was both physical and transformative.
