Comment:
.
.... Jesus likened His death to a seed that is sown:

.... "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain."

(John 12:24)

.... In the same way He would give His life to bring many sons to glory, but He Himself would also live again :
.... "When You make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His
days."
