Exegesis
The verse presents a conditional protasis with ei {εἰ | eí} “if,” linked by de {δὲ | dè} to the preceding argument, imagining the non-resurrection of Christos {Χριστὸς | Khris-tós} by negating the perfect passive egegertai {ἐγήγερται | egḗ-ger-tai}.
Root and etymology
chriochi–rho–iota–omega
“to anoint”
In context — 1 Corinthians 15:14
But if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is empty , and your faith is empty as well.
