Subject: Is the first resurection in Mat 27:52 |
Bible Note: Wait a second. It is an interesting theological "aside", but let's get back to the issue. If we want to make too much out of the word again, let's take it in the context of John 10:17. Christ, who had taken "life" (John 1 - the word became flesh), laid his life down. When He rose, he took life again. When Revelation says "This is the first resurrection", it speaks of those who came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. (Rev 20:4). |
