1 Cor. 15:19      1 Cor. 15:21

First letter to the Corinthians 15:20

But now the Anointed One (Messiah, Christ) has been raised (Gk. egeiro) from the dead [to eternal life],
and he became the first (a foretaste, the firstfruits, the firstborn) of those who have died (fallen asleep in death).
[Without the resurrection, faith is meaningless and we remain in our sins. If it weren't for the resurrection, Jesus would have been like any other rabbi who tried to renew Israel but failed. In that case, Peter, James, Andrew, and John would have returned to their boats and lived ordinary lives. The resurrection shows that sin and death did not have the last word.]
