Death

When heaven had not yet come into existence,
When men had not yet come into existence,
When gods had not yet been born,
When death had not yet come into existence …

Egyptian Pyramid Texts

God, who is immortal himself, put a spark of immortality into us. We might have blown it into a flame but blew it out by our first sin [1]

But to cure the body, the root, the occasion of diseases is a work reserved for the great Physician which he does never any other way but by glorifying these bodies in the next world. [22]
