The belief that the dead will be raised with bodies, rather than existing only as souls.

Paper 3
Revise: The AfterlifeMany Orthodox Jews believe that God will bring about bodily resurrection, traditionally associated with the coming of the Messiah. The Messiah is the hoped-for figure associated with a future age of peace. Resurrection expresses confidence that God’s power extends even over death.
Distinguish bodily resurrection from immortality of the soul. A soul continuing after death is not the same as a dead body being raised.
