Additional quotes by Athanasius of Alexandria
"But if, without any illness and without any pain, he had hidden his body away by itself privately and "in a corner" (Acts 26.26), or in a desert place or by a house or anywhere at all, and afterwards suddenly appearing again said he had raised himself from the dead, he would have been supposed by all to be telling tall tales and would have been distrusted even more when speaking about the resurrection, as there would be no one at all to witness his death. Death must precede resurrection, for there would be no resurrection without death preceding, so that if the death of the body took place somewhere in secret, death neither appearing nor taking place before witnesses, its resurrection would also be unseen and unwitnessed."

The people who walk angelically according to their free will and practice discipline in the life of the angels remove themselves completely from the desires of the flesh, beloved brothers; they die daily in the life that belongs to earth, but they live in the life of the angels, just as they share in the life of the Lord.
