Chayá significa viver ou fazer viver. Percorre desde o sopro de Deus em Adão, passando pelos ossos secos que se levantam em Ezequiel, até à promessa da vida eterna.

Chayah is the verb to live, and to make alive. It names physical life, but the Old Testament steadily widens it into the life God gives — present and eternal.

Ezekiel 37’s dry bones “live” (vayichyu) when the LORD breathes on them. That is the picture the gospel takes up: God still gives life to the dead, through his Son who is “the resurrection and the life.”
