Resurrection
Coming back alive
Resurrection is the verbal noun of resurrect, which has the notion of bringing back to life.
Since this is rare in organisms, the word is typically used figuratively to suggest the return of something abstract to vitality: There was a resurrection of peace talks at the United Nations.
When capitalized, Resurrection refers to the return to life of Jesus after he was crucified, as reported in the New Testament.
Resurrection also denotes a musical work based on this event.
