"The rest of the dead". They are the ungodly, the lost, obviously. When the 'thousand years' or Christian era closes with Christ's 'Second Coming' it closes with the general resurrection of all the dead both saints and wicked. Only the saints will have received the first resurrection - the regeneration to life eternal through Christ. "Blessed and holy" are they (verse 6)

"The rest of the dead". They are the ungodly, and include the devil, obviously. "When the thousand years (the Gospel era) are expired, satan will be loosed". (verse 7)
