'Body' in the Bible

God has put all things under His feet, and has appointed Him universal and supreme Head of the Church, which is His Body,

Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh -- who are called "uncircumcision" by the so-called "circumcision" that is performed on the body by human hands --

For He Himself is our peace and our bond of unity. He who made both groups—[Jews and Gentiles]—into one body and broke down the barrier, the dividing wall [of spiritual antagonism between us],

And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

and [that you may come] to know [practically, through personal experience] the love of Christ which far surpasses [mere] knowledge [without experience], that you may be filled up [throughout your being] to all the fullness of God [so that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself].

There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

Therefore, rejecting all falsehood [whether lying, defrauding, telling half-truths, spreading rumors, any such as these], speak truth each one with his neighbor, for we are all parts of one another [and we are all parts of the body of Christ].

For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

For no one has ever hated his own body, but he nourishes and tenderly cares for it, as the Messiah does the church.

For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

Take your place, then, having your body clothed with the true word, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness;
