Do we then consider it a great and wonderful[*](The resurrection promised in the Scriptures) thing that the creator of the universe will bring about the resurrection of those who served him in holiness, in the confidence of a good faith, when he shows us the greatness of his promise even through a bird?

For he says in one place And thou shalt raise me up, and I will praise thee, and I laid me down and slept, I rose up, for thou art with me.

And again Job says And thou shalt raise up this my flesh which has endured all these things.
