After careful study and Yahuwah's guidance I have found the bodily resurrection so many believe is future.
When I would talk aloud about the resurrection with my Father and Heavenly Counselor , I would get a nudge to look into the dry bones of Ezekiel.
The vision of the valley of dry bones was explained to be a metaphor for Israel’s return from captivity (37:11-14). God identified the bones as “the whole house of Israel.” And He knew Israel had lost hope—“Behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are indeed cut off’” (37:11). But God promised to raise Israel from their graves (37:12-14). There are four promises here that are all wrapped up together:
I will open your graves and raise you from your graves (37:12).
And I will bring you into the land of Israel (37:12, 14).
And you shall know that I am Yahweh (37:13, 14).
And I will put my Spirit within you (37:14).
From what I can see in scripture:
The Temple is the body of Y'shua , so when He rose again , those who were asleep in the dust rose with him. There is your bodily resurrection. Y'shua is the only one who was incorrupt and without sin and worthy to ascend into heaven bodily. If you are in Him, you ascended to . As Paul says in Ephesians 2:6: Alive with Christ
…made us alive with Christ, even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved! 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might display the surpassing riches of His grace, demonstrated by His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.…
Your dead shall live; their bodies shall rise. You who dwell in the dust, awake and sing for joy! For your dew is a dew of light, and the earth will >>>give birth to the dead<<< (Isaiah 26:19).
Rejoice with Jerusalem
Isaiah 66:8
7“Before she was in labor, she gave birth; before she was in pain, she delivered a boy. 8 Who has heard of such as this? Who has seen such things? Can a country be born in a day or a >>>nation be delivered in an instant?<<< Yet as soon as Zion was in labor, she gave birth to her children. 9 Shall I bring a baby to the point of birth and not deliver it?” says the LORD. “Or will I who deliver close the womb?” says your God.…
Come, let us return to Yahweh; for he has torn us, that he may heal us; he has struck us down, and he will bind us up.>>>> After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will raise us up<<<<<<(Hosea 6:1-2).
So the resurrection is really a revival of a nation of dead corpses .
The literal resurrection of those like Lazarus was proof of life after a literal bodily death and also a precursor to the spiritual resurrection when saints were translated into the heavenly kingdom.
The saints came back in vindication with Christ at the judgement on Jerusalem in AD 70.
The literal Jerusalem that was judged and laid waste was a blank canvas to rebuild the Spiritual New Jerusalem on which came down on earth and we who are alive now are residents of said City and eat (hopefully) from the tree of life when we are obedient and use His Wisdom to keep His Commandments.
Zechariah 2:10-11
"Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst,” says the LORD. 11 “Many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent Me to you."
Revelation 22:14 - Blessed [are] they that >>>do his commandments<<<, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Proverbs 15:4 - A wholesome tongue [is] a tree of life: but perverseness therein [is] a breach in the spirit.
Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour. 17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. 18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her. 19 The LORD by >>wisdom <<<hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens
…9 Behold, the Day of the LORD is coming—cruel, with fury and burning anger—>>>>to make the earth a desolation and to destroy the sinners within it<<<<<. 10For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light. The sun will be darkened when it rises, and the moon will not give its light. 11I will punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their iniquity. I will end the haughtiness of the arrogant and humiliate the pride of tyrants.…
Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
Isaiah 61:11
For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
