Luke 14:14

At the resurrection of the just] i.e. at the glorious resurrection to life eternal which the righteous only will enjoy, with which is contrasted 'the resurrection of condemnation' which awaits the unrighteous (John 5:29). 'The resurrection of the just' here answers exactly to' the resurrection from the dead,' viz. of righteous persons only (Philippians 3:11 RV), as distinguished from 'the resurrection of the dead,' which includes all mankind (Acts 17:32). Our Lord's words give no real sanction to the Jewish belief in two distinct resurrections, the first of the righteous the second of the unrighteous, traces of which some expositors find in 1 Corinthians 15:23; 1 Thessalonians 4:16, and especially in Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:6.
