'Body' in the Bible
for I indeed, as being absent as to the body, and present as to the spirit, have already judged, as being present, him who so wrought this thing:
the meats are for the belly, and the belly for the meats. And God both this and these shall make useless; and the body is not for whoredom, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body;
have ye not known that he who is joined to the harlot is one body? 'for they shall be -- saith He -- the two for one flesh.'
flee the whoredom; every sin -- whatever a man may commit -- is without the body, and he who is committing whoredom, against his own body doth sin.
Have ye not known that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own,
for ye were bought with a price; glorify, then, God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
the wife over her own body hath not authority, but the husband; and, in like manner also, the husband over his own body hath not authority, but the wife.
The wife and the virgin have been distinguished: the unmarried is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit, and the married is anxious for the things of the world, how she shall please the husband.
but I chastise my body, and bring it into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved.
The cup of the blessing that we bless -- is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? the bread that we break -- is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?
because one bread, one body, are we the many -- for we all of the one bread do partake.
and having given thanks, he brake, and said, 'Take ye, eat ye, this is my body, that for you is being broken; this do ye -- to the remembrance of me.'
so that whoever may eat this bread or may drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, guilty he shall be of the body and blood of the Lord:
for he who is eating and drinking unworthily, judgment to himself he doth eat and drink -- not discerning the body of the Lord.
For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ,
for also in one Spirit we all to one body were baptized, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or freemen, and all into one Spirit were made to drink,
for also the body is not one member, but many;
if the foot may say, 'Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body;
and if the ear may say, 'Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body?
If the whole body were an eye, where the hearing? if the whole hearing, where the smelling?
and now, God did set the members each one of them in the body, according as He willed,
and if all were one member, where the body?
and now, indeed, are many members, and one body;
But much more the members of the body which seem to be more infirm are necessary,
and those that we think to be less honourable of the body, around these we put more abundant honour, and our unseemly things have seemliness more abundant,
and our seemly things have no need; but God did temper the body together, to the lacking part having given more abundant honour,
that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same anxiety for one another,
and ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
and if I give away to feed others all my goods, and if I give up my body that I may be burned, and have not love, I am profited nothing.
and that which thou dost sow, not the body that shall be dost thou sow, but bare grain, it may be of wheat, or of some one of the others,
and God doth give to it a body according as He willed, and to each of the seeds its proper body.
it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body;
