But the descriptions of the reward of the faithful in God's coming Kingdom on earth show that they will have a tangible, bodily existence, although no longer subject to the weaknesses of human nature. Job longed for the "latter day" when he would have a resurrection of his body (Job 19:25-27); Abraham must be one of the "many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth (who) shall awake...to everlasting life" (Dan.12:2) so that he can receive the promise of eternal inheritance of the land of Canaan, a physical location on this earth (Gen.17:8).
Jina la kumbukumbu yake, YEHOVA ELOI, linamaanisha hivi (Atakaye kuwa kwa wenye nguvu ni tafsiri iliyo karibu sahihi.) ikiwa Mungu si mtu mwenye umbo, basi thawabu ya waaminifu katika ufalme wa Mungu ujao duniani inaonyesha ya kwamba watakuwa nayo wazi tena dhahiri wakiwepo katika mwili, Ingawa hawatakuwa katika udhaifu wa mwili wa Mwanadamu tena. Ayubu alitamani' Siku ya mwisho’ atakapofunguliwa na mwili wake (Ayubu 19:25:27); Abrahamu itabidi awe mmojawapo wa wale wengi wa hao walalao katika mavumbi ya nchi ambao wataamka…… Kwa uzima wa Milele wa nchi ya Kanani (Dan. 12:2) hivyo basi ataweza kupata ahadi ya urithi wa milele wa nchi ya kanaani, Sehemu inayoonekana katika dunia hii
