Question
Does the bible say who raised Jesus from the dead? Was it God the father, Son or Holy Spirit? Thank you
The NT refers to the resurrection as Jesus' rising [active voice; for example, 1 Thes 4:14]or being raised [passive voice; for example, Rom 4:25]. The passive usage is a pious way of refering to God without naming the sacred name of God. Theologically, the three Persons of Trinity act as one in resurrecting the dead Jesus. Eph 1:15-23 speaks of the Father; Rom 8:11 refers to the Spirit. 1 Thes 4:14 refers to Jesus [the Son] rising.

As always, best wishes, Pete.
