Acts 3.19. Repent and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the time of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; and he shall send Jesus Christ—
Luke 14.14. Thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.
Let the Reader here take notice of that most important observation of Dr. Hammond, that [Greek or Hebrew], the Resurrection, doth often signify, in general [our living in the next world, or our next state of life] in the Scriptures; and not the last Resurrection only, unless it be called, The Resurrection of the flesh, or of the body for distinction; or the context have before explained it otherwise. By which 1 Cor. 15. and Christs answer to the Sadducees, may be the better understood.
