Alma 40:16

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.
