Bible Note: You are right when you say "plainly states" but this is what the Jews thought. Martha’s words at the time of Lazarus’ death are of interest here, for at that time God-fearing Jews had no hope other than an earthly resurrection. Martha’s faith was expressed in the words:- John 11:24 Martha said to Him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day." put with what is said at Ps 37:29 The righteous will inherit the land And dwell in it forever. It seems that the idea is powerfuly hinted at in the scriptures DBR |
