What the rest of the Bible says
Some to everlasting life, some to shame
Centuries before Jesus, the prophet Daniel wrote that many who sleep in the dust will awake, some to everlasting life and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
What Daniel wrote
Jesus' words about the resurrection of life and the resurrection of judgment (John 5:28-29) echo this passage.
2Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. 3Those who are wise will shine as the brightness of the expanse. Those who turn many to righteousness will shine as the stars forever and ever.
