And I saw the dead. This is the raising of all the dead, both soul (spirit) and body. See John 5:28-29; Acts 24:15; Revelation 1:7. The apostles stressed the resurrection of the complete man (see 1 John 3:2; Philippians 3:21; 1 Corinthians 15:35-57). Paul continually preached about Jesus and the resurrection (Acts 17:18). In the vision. John sees the sea give up its dead, and Death and the world of the dead [Hades] give up the dead they hold. Every one of the dead are raised to live again: some in Eternity with God; some in the lake of fire with Satan.
