1 Corinthians 15:23

But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ's, at his coming.

'But each in his own order' -'order, turn, arrangement' (Willis p. 550)

The Corinthians may have written Paul with some questions about the "order" of the resurrection. Some may have been under the mistaken impression, that all the dead were supposed to rise when Christ rose from the dead.

'Christ the firstfruits' -the first class or group previously mentioned. (1 Corinthians 15:20)

'then they that are Christ's' -Christians.

'at his coming' -'And following Christ, living because he lives. are those that are Christ's' (McGuiggan p. 193)

'coming' -'It became. technical term to refer to the visit of. person of high rank (kings, emperors).' (Willis p. 550)
