Subject: where was Jesus? |
Bible Note: Hi Searcher I've reread this passage and if you take what is said as two differant sentances (my spellings terrible) I see where you are comming from.I use KJV and it reads as one sentance ...and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,and came out of the graves after his resurrection,and went into the holy city,and appeared unto many. That said i've also read other translations that make it two sentances. But in all the translations i've read it does say they came out of the graves after his resurrection.So lets agree with what the scriptures say , but this does not have to do away with your interpitation of it for I thank we are both right. The graves were open and the saints arose,but stayed in their graves(tombs,caves)until the resurrection.Maybe it was while they were in their tombs Jesus preached the gospel unto them. I hope this make sense of the two different points of view. In Christ Scott. |
