He will also raise us up

“By his power God raised the Lord, and he will also raise us up.” (1 Corinthians 06:14)

“And do not think to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that God is able from these stones to raise children for Abraham.” (Matthew 03:09)

In Hebrew, there is a wordplay between the words for “God” (אלקים) and “Raise Up” (להקים).
