    What are you talking about? Two groups being resurrected is not two resurrections. It’s singular. It’s ONE resurrection. That there are other resurrections is not being denied, but at THIS resurrection this singular resurrection two groups are being resurrected. This is very clear. Sure there was another resurrection 1,000 years earlier called the first resurrection but at THIS resurrection two groups are resurrected. Saying there are two resurrections which happens to be 1,000 years apart when it clearly says ONE resurrection is poor exegesis of the wording. Commented Jan 8, 2025 at 20:54

    Maybe so @Dottard for Daniel but it’s still only speaking of ONE awakening not two. And in the NT it does use resurrection and it is singular such as in Acts24:15 where it mentions two groups yet only one resurrection. Commented Jan 8, 2025 at 23:41

    “Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬ ‭ “For I feel a divine jealousy for you, since I betrothed you to one husband, to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭11‬:‭2 @Dieter Commented Jan 22, 2025 at 4:02

    This could be a simile in view of Revelation 21:9,10 (ESV). "Then came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues and spoke to me, saying, “Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of the Lamb.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God." And then the New Jerusalem is described next with measurements. The description concludes with "only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life" may enter the New Jerusalem. Just something to consider. :-) Commented Jan 22, 2025 at 5:16

    The reason that verse says “many”, instead of “all” could be because it doesn’t incorporate the fraction of people that participated in the limited first resurrection. And regarding the last verse of Daniel 12, it seems like there are two ends. One end of the world just before the millennium starts. And, one end of the earth at the end of the millennium.
