This is seen in Genesis (25:32), Proverbs (8:23), and Psalms (90:1-5).

It also appears in the Book of Job, Chapter 1, verses 20-22, where it is written: "At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship and said: 'Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will return there. The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.' In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing."

If we contemplate Job’s saying with a meticulous eye—"Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will return there"—what could be intended by the phrase "naked I will return there" other than reincarnation? He asks for a blessing upon both the departure and the return.

It also appears in Isaiah (26:19) and the Book of Daniel (12:2): "But your dead will live, Lord; their bodies will rise—let those who dwell in the dust wake up and shout for joy." And in Isaiah (26:19): "Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt."
