Don’t marvel at this, for the hour comes, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

Where you find this verse
From this verse, the Word reaches
Fulfilled hereEzekiel 37:12
God promised to open graves and bring His people up, and Jesus says the hour is coming when He will do exactly that.
“Therefore prophesy, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.”
In parallel with1 Thessalonians 4:16
The Lord will descend with a shout and the dead in Christ will rise first.
“For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God’s trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:”
