Εἰ γὰρ σύμφυτοι γεγόναμεν τῷ ὁμοιώματι τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ ἀλλὰ καὶ τῆς ἀναστάσεως ἐσόμεθα·
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection. (Romans 6:5)
Καθάπερ γὰρ τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ ταφὲν ἐν τῇ γῇ, καρπὸν τῆς οἰκουμένης τὴν σωτηρίαν ἤνεγκεν, οὕτω καὶ τὸ ἡμέτερον ταφὲν ἐν τῷ βαπτίσματι, καρπὸν ἤνηγκε τὴν δικαιοσύνην, τὸν ἁγιασμόν, τὴν υἱοθεσίαν, τὰ μυρία ἀγαθά, οἴσει δὲ καὶ τὸ τῆς ἀναστάσεως ὕστερον δῶρον.
For as His Body, by being buried in the earth, brought forth as the fruit of it the salvation of the world; thus ours also, being buried in baptism, bore as fruit righteousness, sanctification, adoption, countless blessings. And it will bear also hereafter the gift of the resurrection.
Saint John Chrysostom, Commentary on Romans
