Did you know there is a difference between Christian Doctrine per The New Testament about the resurrection when Jesus returns, and the orthodox Jew's idea of the resurrection per The Old Testament?
Some Christian Churches wrongly preach the orthodox Jew's idea of resurrection, which is belief on the old dead flesh body being raised from the ground, and made anew. Just where would the orthodox Jews get such an idea?
Here's one place...
Ezek 37:1-12
37 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
3 And He said unto me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" And I answered, "O Lord GOD, thou knowest."
4 Again He said unto me, "Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, 'O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.'
5 Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD."
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
9 Then said He unto me, "Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, 'Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live."
10 So I prophesied as He commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
11 Then He said unto me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, 'Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.'
12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, 'Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O My people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel."
KJV
Wow! What would someone who stays ONLY in The Old Testament Scriptures think about the future resurrection at Christ's future coming? They would definitely believe that God is going to refurbish old dead bodies buried in the ground, wouldn't they? But didn't anyone in Ezekiel's day ever think that God was giving that prophecy through Ezekiel as an allegory?
Here's why I ask that, for the following is about the resurrection per New Testament doctrine...
1 Cor 15:49-55
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, 'Death is swallowed up in victory.'
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
KJV
As we have borne the "image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly"? What is Paul talking about with that?
Well, what is the "image of the earthy"? It's our flesh body, right? Yes! So what's that "image of the heavenly" we will also bear? That's the image of the angels, because Lord Jesus said in Matthew 22:30 that those of the resurrection are "as the angels of God in heaven".
That brings up an important question. If the resurrection is "as the angels" in Heaven, then just what kind... of body do the angels have? We well know through enough revelations in God's Word that the angels are not born through woman's womb, so they do not... have flesh bodies. They have angelic bodies of that other realm, the realm of Spirit.
Is the resurrection then to an angelic heavenly type body, and not about a literal flesh body? YES! Apostle Paul confirms this in the above, and in the following...
1 Cor 15:42-50
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
That idea of the first man Adam being made a living soul is important to distinguish from the resurrection that our Lord Jesus shows. Paul tells us there that "the last Adam was made a quickening spirit"!
I don't know about you, but a "quickening spirit" does NOT mean a flesh body.
Do you remember that even in John 3 Lord Jesus made a distinction between that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of The Spirit is spirit? Flesh and spirit are two totally distinctly different realms and operations. The "natural body" is a body of flesh we have today. The "spiritual body" is the body type of the future resurrection. It is the "quickening spirit" type of the future with Jesus. Thus even our Lord Jesus' flesh body was transfigured to "a quickening spirit".
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
KJV
There are more Old Testament Scripture examples that can make one think the future resurrection will be a refurbished flesh body out of the ground, such as Isaiah 26:19; Hosea 13:14; Daniel 12:2, Psalms 71:20.
Even with the Genesis 2:7 description that when God breathed the breath of life into Adam and he became a 'living soul', the orthodox Jews are led to believe that the soul... is even part of our flesh. It is not, as Lord Jesus showed in the Matthew 10:28 Scripture to not fear those who can kill our flesh, but not our soul.
