42. Death
In this context means they will not be judged until the final judgment. It is a given that all of us, believers or not, will die in the flesh. Jesus is saying that of those that believe, there will be a resurrection of the fleshly dead. This is not saying this will happen before the original apostles die. If that were true, then the book of Acts, where Jesus asks his apostles to spread the word and build his church until he returns would be moot. Death means eternal separation from God. Until we see the kingdom of God, only our flesh is dead.
