In a special way the Cr oss contains the mysteries of the Resurrection. St. Ephrem comments on why Christ died on the Cross by saying: "And He died the death of the Cross s o that in it a mystery should be drawn. That is\, through His death shall rise all who die because even at His crucifixion\, He was standing up."Thi s notion of the Cross as being a carrier of the power of the resurrection is a prominent feature of Christian theology in general. The Orthodox Fren ch theologian\, Olivier Clement refers to it when he writes that the Cross is seen as fundamentally life-giving because it is inseparable from the d escent into hell\, the resurrection and the ascension to the right hand of the Father. St. Philoxenos further clarifies this point when he shows the role of both the Cross and the Resurrection in our redemption. He writes: "We believe that death was abolished not by the resurrection of our Lord\ , but by His death. The resurrection did not abolish death\, it uncovered and made clear that death was abolished."So the deacon sings during the Se rvice of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross: "By waving the life-giving Cros s solemnly from east to west and from north to south\, the whole earth is sanctified"Reference: Mor Cyril Aphrem Karim\, 'The Sign of the Cross'\, i n Pro Oriente Syriac Dialogue V 2003 LOCATION: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
