Were others resurrected when Jesus was?
Jesus was the only person to be resurrected from the dead in a resurrection body. His body was changed from a physical body to a resurrection body just as Christians who are resurrected on "that' day will receive a resurrection body. Matthew 27:51-54 gives some signs that occurred at the death of Christ. One was that some graves were opened on that day but the live bodies did not emerge from the tombs until Jesus resurrected three days later. These people came forth from the graves much like Lazarus did. They were revived but not resurrected and they were not in their resurrection bodies. We are not told how long these people remain alive before they died again..........to be resurrected with the rest of the saints on resurrection day, just as Lazarus died physically some time later after Jesus brought him back from the dead ....... to be resurrected with the rest of us on resurrection day.
Why did Jesus' resurrection make people want to follow his teachings?
Belief in the reality of the resurrection made some people follow the teachings of Jesus, because they assumed that if he really rose from the dead then he must be the Son of God.

Even the Jews, who would have known of the reality of the miracles of Jesus, if anyone did, seem to have been largely unmoved by the story of his resurrection.
