Bible Question:
In Gospel Mathew 27:52 and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53, coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many. My question is are these people who are the prophets in old testament period now raised and are before the Lord? or this is just an example just like Jesus transfirgured at the mount? Please explain. Thank you Damien |
Bible Answer: I would tend toward them being before the Lord. The scripture really isn't clear about what happened after they appeared to the people, so any statement is really conjecture at this point. |
