Body » What type of bodies there are
But some one will say - How, are the dead raised? and, with what kind of body, do they come? Simple one! What, thou, sowest, is not quickened, except it die; And, what thou sowest, not the body that shall come into existence, dost thou sow, but a naked kernel - if it so happen, of wheat, or of any of the rest, - read more.
Howbeit, God, giveth it a body, as he pleased, and, unto each of the seeds, a body of its own. Not all flesh, is the same flesh; but, one, indeed, is, the flesh of men, and, another, the flesh of beasts, and, another, the flesh of birds, and, another, of fishes; And there are heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies, - but, of one kind, indeed, is the glory of the heavenly, and, of another kind, is the glory of the earthly; - One, is the glory of a sun, and, another, the glory of a moon, and, another, the glory of stars, - nay! star from star, differeth in glory. Thus, also the resurrection of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption, It is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory, it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power, It is sown a body of the soul, it is raised a body of the spirit; if there is a body of the soul, there is also of the spirit: - Thus, also, it is written - The first man, Adam, became, a living soul, the last Adam, a life-giving spirit. Howbeit, not first, is the body of the spirit, but that, of the soul, - afterwards, that of the spirit. The first man, is of the ground, earthy, the second man, is, of heaven: As, the man of earth, such, also, the men of earth, and, as, the man of heaven, such, also, the men of heaven; And, even as we have borne the image of the man of earth, let us also bear the image of the man of heaven. And, this, I say, brethren, - that, flesh and blood, cannot inherit, God's kingdom. Neither doth, corruption, inherit, incorruption.

Body » Resurrection of
If, in this life, in Christ, we have hoped - and that is all, we are, of all men, most to be pitied. But, now, hath Christ been raised from among the dead, - a firstfruit of them who have fallen asleep; For, since indeed, through a man, came death, through a man, also cometh the raising of the dead; read more.
For, just as, in the Adam, all die, so, also, in the Christ, shall all be made alive. But, each, in his own rank: - A firstfruit, Christ, after that, they who are the Christ's, in his presence, Afterwards, the end - whensoever he delivereth up the kingdom unto his God and Father, whensoever he shall bring to nought all rule and all authority and power; For he must needs reign, until he shall put all his enemies under his feet: As a last enemy, death, is to be destroyed; For - He put, all things, in subjection under his feet. But, whensoever it shall be said - all things are in subjection! - it is evident that it means, - Except him who did put into subjection, unto him, the all things - But whensoever have been put into subjection, unto him, the all things, then, the Son himself, alsoshall be put in subjection unto him who put in subjection, unto him, the all things, - that, God, may be, all things in all. Else, what will they do, who are being immersed in behalf of the dead? If, not at all, are the dead to be raised, why are they even being immersed in their behalf? Why also are, we, running into peril every hour? Day by day, am I dying! - Yea! by your own boasting, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord. If, after the manner of men, I have fought with wild-beasts at Ephesus, what, to me, the profit? If the dead are not raised, Let us eat and drink, for, tomorrow, we die. Be not deceiving yourselves, - evil communications corrupt gentle manners: - Wake up to sobriety, in righteousness, and be not committing sin; for some have, an ignorance of God: for shame, unto you, am I speaking! But some one will say - How, are the dead raised? and, with what kind of body, do they come? Simple one! What, thou, sowest, is not quickened, except it die; And, what thou sowest, not the body that shall come into existence, dost thou sow, but a naked kernel - if it so happen, of wheat, or of any of the rest, - Howbeit, God, giveth it a body, as he pleased, and, unto each of the seeds, a body of its own. Not all flesh, is the same flesh; but, one, indeed, is, the flesh of men, and, another, the flesh of beasts, and, another, the flesh of birds, and, another, of fishes; And there are heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies, - but, of one kind, indeed, is the glory of the heavenly, and, of another kind, is the glory of the earthly; - One, is the glory of a sun, and, another, the glory of a moon, and, another, the glory of stars, - nay! star from star, differeth in glory. Thus, also the resurrection of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption, It is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory, it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power, It is sown a body of the soul, it is raised a body of the spirit; if there is a body of the soul, there is also of the spirit: - Thus, also, it is written - The first man, Adam, became, a living soul, the last Adam, a life-giving spirit. Howbeit, not first, is the body of the spirit, but that, of the soul, - afterwards, that of the spirit. The first man, is of the ground, earthy, the second man, is, of heaven: As, the man of earth, such, also, the men of earth, and, as, the man of heaven, such, also, the men of heaven; And, even as we have borne the image of the man of earth, let us also bear the image of the man of heaven. And, this, I say, brethren, - that, flesh and blood, cannot inherit, God's kingdom. Neither doth, corruption, inherit, incorruption. Lo! a sacred secret, unto you, do I declare: - we shall not, all, sleep, but we shall, all, be changed, - In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, during the last trumpet; for it shall sound, and, the dead, shall be raised, incorruptible, and, we, shall be changed. For this corruptible must needs clothe itself with incorruptibility, and this mortal, clothe itself, with immortality. But, whensoever, this mortal, shall clothe itself with immortality, then, shall be brought to pass the saying that is written - Death hath been swallowed up, victoriously;
For, just as, in the Adam, all die, so, also, in the Christ, shall all be made alive. But, each, in his own rank: - A firstfruit, Christ, after that, they who are the Christ's, in his presence, Afterwards, the end - whensoever he delivereth up the kingdom unto his God and Father, whensoever he shall bring to nought all rule and all authority and power; For he must needs reign, until he shall put all his enemies under his feet: As a last enemy, death, is to be destroyed; For - He put, all things, in subjection under his feet. But, whensoever it shall be said - all things are in subjection! - it is evident that it means, - Except him who did put into subjection, unto him, the all things - But whensoever have been put into subjection, unto him, the all things, then, the Son himself, alsoshall be put in subjection unto him who put in subjection, unto him, the all things, - that, God, may be, all things in all. Else, what will they do, who are being immersed in behalf of the dead? If, not at all, are the dead to be raised, why are they even being immersed in their behalf? Why also are, we, running into peril every hour? Day by day, am I dying! - Yea! by your own boasting, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord. If, after the manner of men, I have fought with wild-beasts at Ephesus, what, to me, the profit? If the dead are not raised, Let us eat and drink, for, tomorrow, we die.

For this corruptible must needs clothe itself with incorruptibility, and this mortal, clothe itself, with immortality. But, whensoever, this mortal, shall clothe itself with immortality, then, shall be brought to pass the saying that is written - Death hath been swallowed up, victoriously;
Corruption » Physical decomposition » After death
In the sweat of thy face, shalt thou eat bread, until thou return to the ground, because therefrom, wast thou taken, - For, dust, thou art, And, unto dust, shalt thou return.
And the dust return to the earth, as it was, - and, the spirit, return unto God, who gave it.
To corruption, have exclaimed, My father, thou! My mother! and My sister! to the worm.
For thou wilt not abandon my soul to hades, neither wilt thou suffer thy man of lovingkindness, to see corruption:
Because thou wilt not abandon my soul unto hades, neither wilt thou give thy man of lovingkindness to see corruption;
All flesh together, would cease to breathe, and, the earth-born, unto dust, would return.
Thou hidest thy face, they are dismayed, Thou withdrawest their spirit, They cease to breathe, And, unto their own dust, do they return:
To the roots of the mountains, went I down, As for the earth, her bars, were about me, age-abidingly, - Then didst thou bring up - out of the pit - my life, O Yahweh my God.
With foresight, spake he concerning the resurrection of the Christ - that neither was he abandoned unto hades, nor did his flesh see corruption.
And, in that he raised him from among the dead, no more destined to return unto corruption, on this wise hath he spoken - I will give unto you the faithful lovingkindnesses of David. Wherefore also, in a different place , he saith - Thou wilt not give thy man of lovingkindness to see corruption. For, David, indeed, unto his own generation having done service, by the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was added unto fathers, and saw corruption; read more.
But, he whom God hath raised, did not see corruption.
But, he whom God hath raised, did not see corruption.
Thus, also the resurrection of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption,
And, this, I say, brethren, - that, flesh and blood, cannot inherit, God's kingdom. Neither doth, corruption, inherit, incorruption.
