'Body' in the Bible

For I myself, being present in spirit though not in body, have come to a decision about him who has done this thing;

Food is for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will put an end to them together. But the body is not for the desires of the flesh, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body:

Do you not see that your bodies are part of the body of Christ? how then may I take what is a part of the body of Christ and make it a part of the body of a loose woman? such a thing may not be.

Or do you not see that he who is joined to a loose woman is one body with her? for God has said, The two of them will become one flesh.

Keep away from the desires of the flesh. Every sin which a man does is outside of the body; but he who goes after the desires of the flesh does evil to his body.

Or are you not conscious that your body is a house for the Holy Spirit which is in you, and which has been given to you by God? and you are not the owners of yourselves;

For a payment has been made for you: let God be honoured in your body.

The wife has not power over her body, but the husband; and in the same way the husband has not power over his body, but the wife.

And the wife is not the same as the virgin. The virgin gives her mind to the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but the married woman takes thought for the things of the world, how she may give pleasure to her husband.

But I give blows to my body, and keep it under control, for fear that, after having given the good news to others, I myself might not have God's approval.

The cup of blessing which we take, does it not give us a part in the blood of Christ? and is not the broken bread a taking part in the body of Christ?

Because we, being a number of persons, are one bread, we are one body: for we all take part in the one bread.

And when it had been broken with an act of praise, he said, This is my body which is for you: do this in memory of me.

If, then, anyone takes the bread or the cup of the Lord in the wrong spirit, he will be responsible for the body and blood of the Lord.

For a man puts himself in danger, if he takes part in the holy meal without being conscious that it is the Lord's body.

For as the body is one, and has a number of parts, and all the parts make one body, so is Christ.

For through the baptism of the one Spirit we were all formed into one body, Jews or Greeks, servants or free men, and were all made full of the same Spirit.

For the body is not one part, but a number of parts.

If the foot says, Because I am not the hand, I am not a part of the body; it is no less a part of the body.

And if the ear says, Because I am not the eye, I am not a part of the body; it is a part of the body all the same.

If all the body was an eye, where would be the hearing? if all was hearing, where would be the smelling?

But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him.

And if they were all one part, where would the body be?

But now they are all different parts, but one body.

And to those parts of the body which seem to have less honour we give all the more honour; and to those parts of the body which are a cause of shame to us we give the greater respect;

But those parts of the body which are beautiful have no need of such care: and so the body has been joined together by God in such a way as to give more honour to those parts which had need of it;

So that there might be no division in the body; but all the parts might have the same care for one another.

And if there is pain in one part of the body, all the parts will be feeling it; or if one part is honoured, all the parts will be glad.

Now you are the body of Christ, and every one of you the separate parts of it.

And if I give all my goods to the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it is of no profit to me.

But someone will say, How do the dead come back? and with what sort of body do they come?

And when you put it into the earth, you do not put in the body which it will be, but only the seed, of grain or some other sort of plant;

But God gives it a body, as it is pleasing to him, and to every seed its special body.

It is planted a natural body; it comes again as a body of the spirit. If there is a natural body, there is equally a body of the spirit.

For this body which comes to destruction will be made free from the power of death, and the man who is under the power of death will put on eternal life.
