CHAPTER 1: Where did Doctrine of the Old Testament Worthies originate?
There is only one place in the Bible where the word "WORTHIES" is mentioned:
He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make haste to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared.
In this scripture, Nahum is not referring to any resurrected saint. He is addressing the nation of Babylon and the Medes coming against the city of Nineveh in battle. The"worthies" are soldiers of acclaim or nobles who were selected by either the King of Assyria or the King of Babylon. This scripture has nothing to do with the God fearing Prophets or honored saints. Again, there is no other place in the entire Bible that mentions the word "worthies".
In the 27th chapter of Matthew and in verses 52 through 53, the only passage that mentions a mass resurrection and the origins of the Doctrine of the Old Testament Worthies is mentioned
