* In Literature/TheBible, UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} has a tendency to refer to the dead as "sleeping" and use "sleep" or "rest" as a euphemism for [[CessationOfExistence death]]. This causes some confusion at one point: His friend, Lazarus, falls ill and dies, and He tells His disciples that Lazarus is asleep and He's going to go wake him up, to which they ask if he's asleep then won't he get better, causing Jesus to flat out say, "Lazarus is dead." However, this has sort of the opposite effect the trope usually has, as Jesus is trying to point out the impermanence of death, a metaphor he completes by actually [[BackFromTheDead resurrecting the person he's referring to back to life]].
