Origen

“ But on the third day He rose from the dead, [8] in order that having delivered them from the wicked one, and his son, [9] in whom was falsehood and unrighteousness and war and everything opposed to that which Christ is, and also from the profane spirit who transforms himself into the Holy Spirit, He might gain for those who had been delivered the right to be baptized in spirit and soul and body, into the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, which represent the three days eternally present at the same time to those who by means of them are sons of light. ”

“ But since “it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem,” [2] —a perishing which corresponds to the words, “He that loseth his life for My sake shall find it,” [3] —on this account it was necessary for Him to go to Jerusalem, that having suffered many things in that Jerusalem, He might make “the first-fruits” [4] of the resurrection from the dead in the Jerusalem above, doing away with and breaking up the city upon the earth with all the worship which was maintained in it. ”
