The Resurrection of the Dead
Isaiah 25:8
He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces…


The far-up cloud, higher than the hawk flies, higher than the eagle flies, what is it made of? Drops of water from the Hudson, other drops from the East River, other drops from a stagnant pool out on Newark flats — up yonder there, embodied in a cloud, and the sun kindles it. If God can make such a lustrous cloud out of water. drops, many of them soiled and impure and fetched from miles away, can He not transport the fragments of a human body from the earth, and out of them build a radiant body?

(T. De Witt Talmage, D. D.)
