²⁷ And the Father has given the Son the ·approval [authority; power; right] to ·judge [execute judgment], because he is the Son of Man [^Ca title for the Messiah; Dan. 7:13–14]. ²⁸ Don’t ·be surprised [marvel; be amazed] at this: A ·time [^Lhour] is coming when all who are dead and in their graves will hear his voice. ²⁹ Then they will come out of their graves.
