2 General resurrections in their own order.
15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits;
afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
After each individual death condition (being saved or not saved): Christ the Firstfruits and afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
When was the first resurrection that brought the first fruits?
I believe when the veil got torn in two at the death of Christ at Calvary.
Matthew 27,50:53
50 And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.
51 Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, 52
and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

2 Corinthians 5:8
8we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body
and to be at home with the Lord.
Philippians 1:23
23But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire
to depart and be with Christ, for that is very much better;
Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Rev 20:6
After the first resurrection, after a thousand years, there is another one:
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
Rev 20:12-13
