Athanasius Papathanasiou, a Greek Professor of Theology : “The Resurrection is our future. It is the ultimate invading history. But the resurrection ‘haunts’ (στοιχειώνει), it forever accompanies the crucifixion. In other words, the crucifixion shows what kind of event the resurrection is: it is not merely resuscitation, but the victory of sacrificial love over death. In this sense, the crucifixion is not the defeat, which preceded the victory – but the victory, which preceded the victory.”
