victory over death
Conquering the grave
Victory over death is a phrase from religious and philosophical traditions describing the transcendence or defeat of mortality.
In Christianity, it refers to Christ's resurrection and the promise of eternal life for believers: Death is swallowed up in victory.
More broadly, it can mean any triumph over death's finality—through legacy, memory, or spiritual continuation.
