Resurrection of the Dead

 Ohr Hashem (03:04:01) Resurrection of the Dead There are 4 issues that need to be clarified 1) Whether there will be a total or partial resurrection. If it is partial than what part? 2) When is Resurrection of the Dead? 3 ) Will those resurrected use their natural senses and die a second time after they have been resurrected? Will there be a Day of Judgment after resurrection as the Sages’s tradition says? Our only valid sources of information is either from Tradition or Biblical verses and careful analysis and deductions made from them. From what the Bible states explicitly, , "And many from the dust of the earth shall awaken, these to eternal life," etc., it will already be seen that it will not be a general resurrection comprehensive, and this is also what our Sages have also taught. The question is who will be resurrected? The clear anser of the Sages is that only the complexly righteous will be resurrected. But that leaves unanswered whether Ressurrection is for Eternity? In order to answer this is to first clarify the reason for this amazing miraculous resurrection. There seems to be differences of opinion amongst our Sages in Yoma regarding the time of the Resurrection and it seems from there that it will occur when the Temple exists in Messianic times. However from the words of Shmuel that there is no difference between this world and Messianic Times except servitude to the government, it seems clear that the Resurrection will not take place in Messianic times. Thus if there was also Resurrection there would obviously be a huge difference. However this statement of Shmuel is disputed by other Sages. So what we can conclude is that Resurrection will occur soon after the rebuilding of the Temple
