Alma 40:5

Now, whether there shall be one time, or a second time, or a third time,

that men shall come forth from the dead,

it mattereth not;

for God knoweth all these things;

and it sufficeth me to know that this is the case —

that there is a time appointed that all shall rise from the dead.

And now I would inquire what becometh of the souls of men

from this time of death to the time appointed for the resurrection?

Alma 40:8

Now whether there is more than one time appointed for men to rise

it mattereth not;

for all do not die at once,

and this mattereth not;

all is as one day with God,

and time only is measured unto men.

Alma 40:9

Therefore, there is a time appointed unto men that they shall rise from the dead;

and there is a space between the time of death and the resurrection.

And now, concerning this space of time,

what becometh of the souls of men is the thing

which I have inquired diligently of the Lord to know;

and this is the thing of which I do know.
