'Body' in the Bible

And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and unreproveable before him:

Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church;

in whom ye were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;

which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ's.

and not holding fast the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and bands, increasing with the increase of God.

Which things have indeed a show of wisdom in will-worship, and humility, and severity to the body; but are not of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.

And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to the which also ye were called in one body; and be ye thankful.
