| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Knowing - Being fully confident; having the most entire assurance. It was the assured hope of the resurrection which sustained them in all their trials. This expression denotes the full and unwavering belief, in the minds of the apostles, that the doctrines which they preached were true. They knew that they were revealed from heaven, and that all the promises of God would be fulfilled.
Shall raise up us also - All Christians. In the hope of the resurrection they were ready to meet trials, and even to die. Sustained by this assurance, the apostles went forth amidst persecutions and opposition, for they knew that their trials would soon end, and that they would be raised up in the morning of the resurrection, to a world of eternal glory.
By Jesus - By the power or the agency of Jesus. Christ will raise up the dead from their graves, Joh 5:25-29.
And shall present us with you - Will present us before the throne of glory with exceeding joy and honor. He will present us to God as those who have been redeemed by his blood. He will present us in the courts of heaven, before the throne of the eternal Father, as his ransomed people; as recovered from the ruins of the fall; as saved by the merits of his blood. They shall not only be raised up from the dead; but they shall be publicly and solemnly presented to God as his, as recovered to his service, and as having a title in the covenant of grace to the blessedness of heaven. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Knowing that he which raised up the Lord, etc. - And though we shall at last seal this truth with our blood, we fear not, being persuaded that as the body of Christ was raised from the dead by the power of the Father, so shall our bodies be raised, and that we shall have an eternal life with him in glory. |
13 To the end [1519] he may stablish [4741] your [5216] hearts [2588] unblameable [273] in [1722] holiness [42] before [1715] God [2316], even [2532] our [2257] Father [3962], at [1722] the coming [3952] of our [2257] Lord [2962] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547] with [3326] all [3956] his [846] saints [40].
19 For [1063] what [5101] is our [2257] hope [1680], or [2228] joy [5479], or [2228] crown [4735] of rejoicing [2746]? [2228] Are not [3780] even [2532] ye [5210] in the presence [1715] of our [2257] Lord [2962] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547] at [1722] his [846] coming [3952]?
20 For [1063] ye [5210] are [2075] our [2257] glory [1391] and [2532] joy [5479].
14 As [2531] also [2532] ye have acknowledged [1921] us [2248] in [575] part [3313], that [3754] we are [2070] your [5216] rejoicing [2745], even as [2509] ye [5210] also [2532] are ours [2257] in [1722] the day [2250] of the Lord [2962] Jesus [2424].
24 Now [1161] unto him that is able [1410] to keep [5442] you [5209] [846] from falling [679], and [2532] to present [2476] you faultless [299] before the presence [2714] of his [846] glory [1391] with [1722] exceeding joy [20],
13 Meats [1033] for the belly [2836], and [2532] the belly [2836] for meats [1033]: but [1161] God [2316] shall destroy [2673] both [2532] it [5026] and [2532] them [5023]. Now [1161] the body [4983] is not [3756] for fornication [4202], but [235] for the Lord [2962]; and [2532] the Lord [2962] for the body [4983].
14 And [1161] God [2316] hath [1453] both [2532] raised up [1453] the Lord [2962], and [2532] will [1825] also [2532] raise up [1825] us [2248] by [1223] his own [846] power [1411].
1 For [1063] we know [1492] that [3754] if [1437] our [2257] earthly [1919] house [3614] of this tabernacle [4636] were dissolved [2647], we have [2192] a building [3619] of [1537] God [2316], an house [3614] not made with hands [886], eternal [166] in [1722] the heavens [3772].
25 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] The hour [5610] is coming [2064], and [2532] now [3568] is [2076], when [3753] the dead [3498] shall hear [191] the voice [5456] of the Son [5207] of God [2316]: and [2532] they that hear [191] shall live [2198].
26 For [1063] as [5618] the Father [3962] hath [2192] life [2222] in [1722] himself [1438]; so [2532] [3779] hath he given [1325] to the Son [5207] to have [2192] life [2222] in [1722] himself [1438];
27 And [2532] hath given [1325] him [846] authority [1849] to execute [4160] judgment [2920] also [2532], because [3754] he is [2076] the Son [5207] of man [444].
28 Marvel [2296] not [3361] at this [5124]: for [3754] the hour [5610] is coming [2064], in [1722] the which [3739] all [3956] that are in [1722] the graves [3419] shall hear [191] his [846] voice [5456],
29 And [2532] shall come forth [1607]; they that have done [4160] good [18], unto [1519] the resurrection [386] of life [2222]; and [1161] they that have done [4238] evil [5337], unto [1519] the resurrection [386] of damnation [2920].
