The dead who were hearing the voice of the Son of God were not only those who had not yet attained spiritual life and who were in process of accepting the teachings of Divine truth for that purpose; they were also those who had passed away from this world, and who were still living in another; they were thus hearing those words of the Divine voice from which they could learn their destiny; for "all judgment is committed unto the Son, and the word which He speaketh the same judgeth."
