Goddess who lives again? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

isis

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'goddess' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'lives again?' is the wordplay.
'lives' becomes 'is' ('be' can be a synonym of 'live').
'again?' becomes 'is' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'is'+'is'='ISIS'

'who' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for isis that I've seen before include "Exists twice for a goddess" , "Egyptian deity" , "Part of river" , "A dark blue flower" , "Wife of Osiris" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
