People's Commentary (NT)
1 Corinthians 15:20
But now is Christ risen from the dead. This is certain. Paul had
seen the risen Lord. So had many other credible witnesses. But since he
is risen, the resurrection of his disciples must follow.
Become the first fruits of them that slept. Of those who have
slept in death. On the morrow after the first Sabbaths of the passover
a sheaf of the first fruits of the barley harvest was "waved before the
Lord" (Leviticus 23:10-16) as a pledge of the harvest to come So on the
morning after the first Sabbath of the passover, Christ, the first
fruits arose and appeared living, "the first fruits" of the great
harvest of souls gathered into eternal life.
