The Resurrection

What did the Disciples Believe?

John 20 This Sunday's message
After both disciples have gone into tomb (v8), it says “he believed”. Then in brackets it says they still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead. So what did they believe? Answer...

Who were Resurrected?

Who were resurrected after the crucifixion? Why is this event only mentioned in one Gospel (Matt 27:52-53)? Is there any significance in it? Do we know any of the holy people it talked about?
When Jesus died and conquered death, was this like a first rapture? All the old heroes of the Bible - Noah, Abraham, Moses, David etc - were they all in waiting and Jesus brought them into heaven through what he did? (Someone told me and I can't remember where it is in the bible about Jesus going to Hades, preaching and bringing people back. Now if this is true does it link in with the verses in Matthew in any way!?)
