This is an amazing example of the hope of bodily resurrection that some Old Testament believers had. It is one of my favorite verses of Scripture because it states to me that no matter what my present circumstances, good and blessed like Abraham or tested and afflicted like Job, we have this hope of a future bodily resurrection because our Savior, Jesus Christ lives! And in the end He will reign on the earth! And with my eyes I will see God, though I have died and my flesh has once decayed! I can know that death has no victory over me and cannot hold me forever, because Jesus conquered the grave. The enemy has no claim on me, because Jesus despoiled him and his evil intents towards me!
Thank you for bringing this verse to remembrance. I was just thinking of it last night!
