Matthew Poole and continuators on 1 Corinthians 15:23

23 But every man in his own order, Christ the first-fruits , afterwards they that are Christs, at his coming .

In his own order, either with respect to Time, or Dignity, lest any should say, If Christs Resurrection be the cause of the Resurrection of Believers, then why did not all the Saints, that were in the graves, rise with Christ? The Apostle sait[illegible: 1 letter], God had appointed an order, and this order was, that they th[illegible: 2 letters] were dead, or should be dead, before Christs second Coming, should not prevent one another, 1 Thess. 4.15, &c. Besides, the order which God had set, was, That Christ should be the First-fruits of this Harvest, rising first from the dead, so as to dye no more.

Then Believers, that are Members of Christ by Faith implanted into him, should also rise, but not before his second Coming.
