Questions
[edit]
Verse 6
- What is meant by a "space" betwixt the time of death and the time of resurrection?
[edit]
Verse 7
- Why shift from talking about the resurrection itself to the space between death and resurrection?
[edit]
Verse 8
- What might it mean that "time only is measured unto men"? Does this have anything to do with D&C 130:7, where in contrast to mortality, all things past, present, and future are present before God?
[edit]
Verse 9
- Why has Alma been asking the Lord about the time between death and resurrection? What does it mean that Alma had "inquired diligently of the Lord to know" about these things? How does one inquire diligently?
- Why would the Lord bother to answer Alma's questions about the afterlife? Is this just for Alma's edification, or was the revelation to him given mostly for the benefit of Corianton or others?
[edit]
Verse 10
- What does it mean that "God knoweth all the times which are appointed unto man"? What is this and why would it be important?
