Old Testament Believers

Q

What happened to the people who came out of the grave when Jesus died? Some say it was a mistake in the bible. I believe that is wrong when you start going down that road. Also when will the OT Saints be resurrected?

A

Old Testament believers who came out of Paradise after the Lord’s resurrection went to Heaven when He did. According to Daniel 12:1-2 the general resurrection of Old Testament believers occurs at the end of the Great Tribulation. I believe those who came out of the grave when Jesus died fulfilled the wave offering (sample of the harvest) in the Feast of First Fruits ceremony.(Lev. 23:9-11).
