And behold, again it hath been spoken, that there is a first resurrection,

a resurrection of all those who have been, or who are, or who shall be,

down to the resurrection of Christ

from the dead.

Alma 40:18

Behold, I say unto you, Nay;

but it meaneth the reuniting of the soul with the body,

of those from the days of Adam down to the resurrection of Christ.

Alma 40:19

Now, whether the souls and the bodies of those of whom has been spoken

shall all be reunited at once,

the wicked as well as the righteous,

I do not say;

let it suffice, that I say that they all come forth;

or in other words, their resurrection cometh to pass

before the resurrection of those who die after the resurrection of Christ.

Alma 40:20

Now, my son, I do not say

that their resurrection cometh at the resurrection of Christ;

but behold, I give it as my opinion,

that the souls and the bodies are reunited, of the righteous,

at the resurrection of Christ, and his ascension into heaven.

Alma 41:2

I say unto thee, my son,

that the plan of restoration is requisite with the justice of God;

for it is requisite that all things should be restored to their proper order.

Behold, it is requisite and just, according to the power and resurrection of Christ,

that the soul of man should be restored to its body,

and that every part of the body should be restored to itself.
