'Flesh' in the Bible
concerning his Son, who was born {a descendant} of David according to the flesh,
For the Jew is not {one outwardly}, nor [is] circumcision {outwardly}, in the flesh.
What then shall we say [that] Abraham, our ancestor according to the flesh, has found?
(I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh.) For just as you presented your members [as] slaves to immorality and lawlessness, [leading] to lawlessness, so now present your members [as] slaves to righteousness, [leading] to sanctification.
For when we were in the flesh, sinful desires were working through the law in our members, to bear fruit for death.
For I know that good does not live in me, that is, in my flesh. For the willing is present in me, but the doing [of] the good [is] not.
Thanks [be] to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself with my mind am enslaved to the law of God, but with my flesh [I am enslaved] to the law of sin.
For what [was] impossible for the law, in that it was weak through the flesh, God [did]. [By] sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and concerning sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,
in order that the requirement of the law would be fulfilled in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
For those who are [living] according to the flesh are intent on the things of the flesh, but those [who are living] according to the Spirit [are intent on] the things of the Spirit.
For the mindset of the flesh [is] death, but the mindset of the Spirit [is] life and peace,
because the mindset of the flesh [is] enmity toward God, for [it is] not subjected to the law of God, for [it is] not able [to do so],
and those who are in the flesh are not able to please God.
But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, this person {does not belong to him}.
So then, brothers, we are obligated not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.
For if you live according to the flesh, you are going to die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
For I could wish myself to be accursed from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my fellow countrymen according to the flesh,
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ and do not make provision for the desires of the flesh.
