The Resurrection of Christ (hê anastasis), mosaic to the right of the passage from the western vestibule to the large church room in the large church of the Monastery of Hosios Lukas, 11th century.
In this depiction, Christ first appears in the realm of the dead, awaited by Old Testament kings, presumably David and Solomon, overcomes death, shatters the gate to the realm of the dead beneath his feet and grasps the arm of the kneeling old Adam, behind whom Eve can be seen in a posture of prayer.

The resurrection (Greek: αναστασις anastasis ; Latin: resurrectio; German: Auferstehung) of the body or the resurrection of the dead (Latin: resurrectio mortuorum) means the reunion of the immortal spirit or the immortal part of the soul, previously separated from the body by death, with the now restored but no longer decomposed body. Through the resurrection, the incorruptibility or regeneration of the bodily form and thus the bodily, mental and spiritual integrity of the human being is guaranteed. This is also referred to in the famous quote by Friedrich Christoph Oetinger (1702-1782): "Corporeality is the end of the works of God".
