Thematic Bible: Resurrection of


Thematic Bible










And if thine eye give thee cause of offence, take it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members be destroyed, and not thy whole body be cast into hell.

And if thy hand or thy foot give thee cause of offence, cut them off, and cast from thee: it is good for thee to come into life lame or maimed, than having two hands or two feet to be cast into eternal fire.



Who will change the body of our humiliation, for it to be conformable to the body of his glory, according to the operation by which he is able to place all things under himself.

It is sown an animated body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is an animated body, and there is a spiritual body.


For also in this we groan, longing to have our dwelling from heaven put on:



Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? having taken the members of Christ, shall I make members of a harlot? It may not be.

If in this life only we have been hoping in Christ, we are more to be compassionated than all men. And now Was Christ raised from the dead, he was the first fruits of those having died. For since by man death, also by man the rising up of the dead. read more.
For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. And each in his own order: the first fruit Christ; then they of Christ in his arrival. Then the end, when he should deliver up the kingdom to God, and the Father; when he should leave unemployed every beginning and every authority and power. For he must reign, till he put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy, death, is left unemployed. For he subjected all things under his feet. And when he said that all things have been subjected, it is manifest that without him having subjected all things to him. And when all things be subjected to him, then also shall the Son himself be subjected to him having made all things subject to him, that God might be all things in all. For what shall they do being immersed for the dead, if in fine the dead rise not? and why are they immersed for the dead? And why are we in peril every hour? In the day I die by: your boasting which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord. If according to man I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what the profit to me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die. Be not deceived: evil intercourses corrupt good habits. Recover your senses rightly, and in not; for some have a want of knowledge of God: I speak to your confusion. But some one will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? Froth, what thou sowest is not made alive, except it die: And what thou sowest, thou sowest not the body going to be, but the naked kernel, if perhaps of wheat, or some of the rest: And God gives it a body as he would, and to each of the seed its own body. Not all flesh the same flesh: but one truly flesh of men, and another of cattle, and another of fishes, and another of flying things. And celestial bodies, and terrestrial bodies: but truly one the glory of the celestial, and another that of the terrestrial. One glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for star differs from star in glory. So also the rising up 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 an animated body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is an animated body, and there is a spiritual body. So also has been written, The first man Adam was born into a living soul; and the last Adam into a spirit making alive. But the first not spiritual, but animated; then the spiritual. The first man of earth, made of earth: the second man the Lord from heaven. As the made of earth, such also the made of earth: and as the celestial, such also the celestial. And as we have borne the image of the made of earth, we shall also bear the image of the celestial. And this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I speak to you a mystery; We truly shall not all be laid asleep, but we shall all be changed, In an atom, in the twinkling of the eye, in the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corrupted must put on incorruption, and this mortal put on immortality. And when this corrupted shall put on incorruption, and this mortal shall put on immortality, then shall be the word written, Death was swallowed down in victory.


And the dead came out, bound feet and hands with bandages; and his face was bound with a napkin. Jesus says to them, Loose him, and let him retire.


And the dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.


And Peter having put them all without, having set the knees, prayed; and having turned back to the body he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and having seen Peter, sat up.




And they shall deliver him to the nations to mock, and scourge, and crucify: and he shall be raised the third day.

And after I be raised, I will lead before you into Galilee.

And they coming down from the mount, he charged them that they recount to none what they saw, except when the Son of man should arise from the dead.

But after I have risen, I will lead before you into Galilee.

Jesus answered and said to them, Loose this temple, and in three days will I raise it up.

Therefore having obtained assistance from God, till this day do I stand, testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what both the prophets and Moses spake being about to be: That Christ exposed to suffering, that first from the rising of the dead, he is about to announce light to the people, and nations.



Who didst cause us to see great straits and evils; thou wilt turn back, thou wilt preserve us alive, and from the depths of the earth thou wilt turn back, thou wilt bring us up.


From the hand of hades will I redeem them; from death will I ransom them: I will be thy words, O death, I will be thy cutting off, O hades: consolation will be hid from mine eyes.






Knowing that he having raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us by Jesus, and present us with you.


And I wish you not to be ignorant, brethren, of them having been asleep, that ye should not grieve, as also the rest, they hating no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose up, so also God by Jesus Christ will bring with him them having slept. For this we say to you in the word of the Lord, that we the living being left at the arrival of the Lord shall not get beforehand with them having slept. read more.
For the Lord himself in the word of command, in the voice of the archangel, shall descend from heaven: and the dead in Christ shall be raised first: Then we the living being left shall be snatched up together with them in the clouds, to the meeting of the Lord in the air: and so we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort ye one another with these words.

And a certain Lazarus was sick, from Bethany, of the town of Mary And Martha her sister. (And Mary was she having anointed the Lord with perfumed oil, and wiped his feet with her hairs, whose brother Lazarus was sick.) Then sent the sisters to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. read more.
And Jesus having heard, said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that by it the Son of God be honoured. And Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. When therefore he heard that he is sick, then indeed he remained in the place in which he was two days. Then after this he says to his disciples, Let us go into Judea again. The disciples say to him, Rabbi, now the Jews sought to stone thee; and retirest thou there again? Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours of the day.? If any walk in the day, he stumbles not, for he sees the light of this world. But if any walk in the night, he stumbles, for light is not in him. These things said he: and after this he says to them, Lazarus our friend has been set to sleep; but I go, that I might waken him. Then said his disciples, Lord, if he has been set to sleep, he shall be saved. And Jesus spake of his death: but these supposed that he speaks of the repose of sleep. Then therefore Jesus said to them with freedom of speech, Lazarus is dead. And I rejoice for you, that ye might believe, that I was not there; but let us go to him. Then said Thomas, called Didymus, to his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we might die with him. Then Jesus, having come, found him having four days already in the tomb. And Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia. And many of the Jews were come to them about Martha and Many, that they might console them for their brother. Then Martha, when she heard that Jesus comes, met him: and Mary sat in the house. Then said Martha to Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. But now I also know, that whatever thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee. Jesus says to her, Thy brother shall arise. Martha says to him, I know that he shall rise at the rising up in the last day. Jesus said to her, I am the rising up, and life: he believing in me, though he die, shall live. And all living and believing in me should never die. Believest thou this? She says to him, Yes, Lord: I have believed that thou art Christ, the Son of God, he coming into the world. And having said these, she departed and called Mary her sister secretly, having said, The Teacher is come, and calls thee. She, when she heard, arises quickly, and comes to him. And Jesus had not yet come into the town, but was in the place where Martha met him. Then the Jews being in the house with her, and consoling her, having seen Mary, that she rose quickly and went forth, followed her, saying, That she retires to the tomb, that she might weep there. Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was, seeing him, fell at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if thou wert here, my brother had not died. Then Jesus, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping having come with her, was heavy in spirit, and troubled himself, And said, Where have ye laid him? They say to him, Lord, come and see. Jesus wept. Then said the Jews, See how he loved him I And certain of them said, Could not he having opened the eyes of the blind, have made that this should not die? Then Jesus again being heavy in himself, comes to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was laid upon it. Jesus says, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, says to him, Lord, he already smells: for it is the fourth day. Jesus says to her, Said I not to thee, if thou shouldest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God Then took they away the stone where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes above, and said, Father, I return thee thanks that thou didst hear me. And I knew that thou always hearest me: but for the crowd standing round I said, that they might believe that thou didst send me. And having said these, he cried out with a great voice, Lazarus, come out. And the dead came out, bound feet and hands with bandages; and his face was bound with a napkin. Jesus says to them, Loose him, and let him retire.

And the sabbath having intervened, Mary Magdalene, and Mary of James, and Salome, bought spices, that having come, they might anoint him. And very early in the morning of one of the sabbaths, they came to the tomb, the sun having risen. And they said to themselves, Who shall roll away for us the stone from the door of the tomb? read more.
And having looked up, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great. And having come to the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right, being encompassed with a white robe; and they were terrified. And he says to them, Be not terrified: Ye seek Jesus the Nazarene, being crucified: he was raised; he is not here: see the place where they laid him. But retire ye; say to his disciples and to Peter that he goes before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said to you. And having come forth quickly, they fled from the tomb; and terror and amazement held them: and they said nothing to any; for they were afraid. And having risen early the first of the sabbath, he was manifested first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast seven demons. She having gone announced to them having been with him, grieving and weeping. And they having heard that he lives, and was seen by her, believed not. And after these things, to two of them, walking about, was he manifested in another form, they going into the field. And they having come announced to the rest: neither did they believe them. Afterwards to those reclining at table was he manifested, and he reproached their unbelief and hard heart, because they believed not them having seen him raised.

And in one of the sabbaths, in the depth of the dawn of day, they came to the tomb, bringing spices which they had prepared, and certain with them. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. And coming in, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus. read more.
And it was in their being perplexed for this, and, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments: And they having, been afraid, and bending the face to the earth, they said to them, Why seek ye the living with the dead He is not here, but has risen: remember how he spake to you being yet in Galilee, Saying, That the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and be raised up the third day. And they remembered his words, And having returned from the tomb, they announced these things to the eleven, and to all the rest. And they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the rest with them, who said these things to the sent. And their words appeared before them as idle talk, and they believed them not. And Peter having risen, ran to the tomb; and having stooped, saw the linen bandages lying alone, and he departed, wondering in himself at what was done. And, behold, two of them were going in the same day to a town being about sixty stadia from Jerusalem, the name of which Emmaus. And they were conversing with one another concerning all things having happened. And it was in their conversing and seeking out together, and Jesus himself, having drawn near, went with them. And their eyes were holden not to know him. And he said to them, What words these which, walking about, ye discuss with one another, and are of gloomy aspect? And one having answered, to whom the name Cleopas, said to him, Sojournest thou alone in Jerusalem, and knowest not the things done in it in these days? And Jesus said to them, What things? And they said to him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazarite, who was a man, a prophet, powerful in work and words before God and all the people: And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to the judgment of death, and crucified him. And we hoped that this is he about to redeem Israel: but also with all these things, to day it brings the third day from which these things were. And also certain women of ours moved us out of place, having been early at the tomb; And not finding his body, they came, saying also to have seen a vision of messengers, who say he is living. And certain of them with us departed to the tomb, and found so as the women said: and him they saw not. And he said to them, O ye unwise, and slow in heart to believe in all things which the prophets spake: Must not Christ suffer these things, and enter into his glory? And having begun from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained clearly to them in all the writings concerning himself. And they drew near to the town where they were going: and he laid claim to go still further. And they constrained him, saying, Remain with us: for it is near eve, and the day has declined. And he went in to remain with them. And it was in his reclining at table with them, having taken bread, he praised, and having broken, bestowed upon them. And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he was removed from their view. And they said to one another, Was not our heart burning in us, as he spake to us in the way, and as he opened the writings to us And having risen the same hour, they returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and those with them. Saying, That truly the Lord was risen, and was seen to Simon. And they recounted the things in the way, and how he was known to them in the breaking of bread. And they speaking these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and he says to them, Peace to you. And they, struck with awe and being afraid, thought to see a spirit. And he said to them, Why have ye been troubled? and wherefore do reflections come up in your hearts? See my hands and my feet, for I am he; feel, and see: for a spirit has not flesh and bones, as ye see me having. And having said this, he showed them hands and feet. And yet they not believing from joy, and wondering, he said to them, Have ye any food here? And they bestowed upon him part of a broiled fish, and of an honey comb. And having taken, he ate before them. And he said to them, These the words which I spake to you, being yet with you, for all things must be completed, written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the Psalms, concerning me. Then opened he their understanding, to understand the writings, And he said to them, That so has it been written, and so was it necessary for Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:


Then Jesus again being heavy in himself, comes to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was laid upon it. Jesus says, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, says to him, Lord, he already smells: for it is the fourth day. Jesus says to her, Said I not to thee, if thou shouldest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God read more.
Then took they away the stone where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes above, and said, Father, I return thee thanks that thou didst hear me. And I knew that thou always hearest me: but for the crowd standing round I said, that they might believe that thou didst send me. And having said these, he cried out with a great voice, Lazarus, come out. And the dead came out, bound feet and hands with bandages; and his face was bound with a napkin. Jesus says to them, Loose him, and let him retire.

The crowd therefore testified which being with him, that he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead. And for this the crowd met him, for they heard he had done this sign.
