Subject: meaning of Matthew 27:52-53 |
Bible Note: Greetings Makarios, I think your first post was more in line with scripture. 1 Cor 15:23 But each in his own turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him. 24Then the end will come... This verse says that those who belong to Jesus will be resurrected when He comes, not at the crucifiction or His resurrection. Those in Matthew 27:52 were likely raised like Lazarus, not with glorified, incorruptible bodies. Listener |
