1 Peter 3:18 Douay-Rheims

Because Christ also died once for our sins, the just for the unjust: that he might offer us to God, being put to death indeed in the flesh, but enlivened in the spirit,

Clement of Alexandria

c. A.D. 150–215 Patristic

"For Christ," he says, "hath once suffered for our sins, the just for the unjust, that he might present us to God; being put to death in the flesh, but quickened in the spirit." He says these things, reducing them to their faith. That is, He became alive in our spirits.

"Coming," he says, "He preached to those who were once unbelieving." They saw not His form, but they heard His voice.
