Death in Old Covenant

Isaiah 57:1

The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; the devout are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil.

Death in New Covenant

John 17:15

My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.

1 Corinthians 15:54

When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
