Alma 40:12

And then shall it come to pass, that

the spirits of those who are righteous are received into a state of happiness,

which is called paradise, a state of rest, a state of peace,

where they shall rest from all their troubles and from all care, and sorrow.

Alma 40:15

Now, there are some that have understood

that this state of happiness

and this state of misery of the soul, before the resurrection,

was a first resurrection.

Yea, I admit it may be termed a resurrection,

the raising of the spirit or the soul and their consignation to happiness or misery,

according to the words which have been spoken.
