27 Is it not as easy at this time, for the Lord to send his angel to declare these glad tidings unto us, as unto our children; or as after the time of his coming?

28 Now my son, here is somewhat more I would say unto thee: for I perceive that thy mind is worried concerning the resurrection of the dead.

29 Behold, I say unto you, that there is no resurrection; or I would say in other words, that this mortal does not put on immortality; this corruption does not put on incorruption, until after the coming of Christ.

30 Behold, he bringeth to pass the resurrection of the dead. But behold, my son, the resurrection is not yet.

31 Now I unfold unto you a mystery: nevertheless, there are many mysteries, which are kept, that no one knoweth them, save God himself.

32 But I shew unto you one thing, which I have inquired diligently of God, that I might know; that is, concerning the resurrection.

33 Behold, there is a time appointed that all shall come forth from the dead.

34 Now when this time cometh, no one knows; but God knoweth the time which is appointed.

35 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.

36 Now there must needs be a space betwixt the time of death, and the time of the resurrection.

37 And now I would inquire what becometh of the souls of men, from this time of death, to the time appointed for the resurrection?
