of_o this_o let_v it_o be_v consider_v first_o that_o john_n speak_v of_o the_o soul_n of_o they_o that_o be_v behead_v that_o be_v of_o those_o that_o be_v slay_v or_o dead_a in_o body_n and_o he_o

may_v be_v thus_o frame_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a in_o body_n be_v the_o resurrec-of_a the_o body_n 1_o cor._n 15.12_o 13._o but_o the_o first_o resurrection_n be_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a in_o body_n for_o it_o be_v the_o resurrection_n of_o those_o that_o be_v behead_v therefore_o it_o be_v of_o the_o body_n second_o the_o text_n speak_v of_o such_o a_o resurrection_n wherein_o man_n live_v a_o thousand_o year_n after_o they_o be_v raise_v which_o can_v agree_v to_o any_o other_o life_n or_o resurrection_n but_o the_o life_n and_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n therefore_o this_o resurrection_n be_v a_o bodily_a resurrection_n three_o such_o a_o resurrection_n be_v here_o mean_v as_o will_v be_v to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o dead_a after_o the_o

the_o body_n also_o four_o the_o man_n that_o be_v behead_v must_v so_o live_v during_o the_o thousand_o year_n as_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o dead_a live_v not_o all_o that_o while_n their_o soul_n be_v still_o separate_v from_o their_o body_n therefore_o these_o must_v live_v in_o soul_n join_v to_o their_o body_n and_o last_o these_o must_v so_o live_v at_o the_o first_o resurrection_n as_o
