'Body' in the Bible

'But, if thy right eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to gehenna.

but if thine eye may be evil, all thy body shall be dark; if, therefore, the light that is in thee is darkness -- the darkness, how great!

'Because of this I say to you, be not anxious for your life, what ye may eat, and what ye may drink, nor for your body, what ye may put on. Is not the life more than the nourishment, and the body than the clothing?

'The lamp of the body is the eye, when then thine eye may be simple, thy whole body also is lightened; and when it may be evil, thy body also is darkened;

if then thy whole body is lightened, not having any part darkened, the whole shall be lightened, as when the lamp by the brightness may give thee light.'

but he spake concerning the sanctuary of his body;

and not having been weak in the faith, he did not consider his own body, already become dead, (being about a hundred years old,) and the deadness of Sarah's womb,

this knowing, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;

Let not then the sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires;

So that, my brethren, ye also were made dead to the law through the body of the Christ, for your becoming another's, who out of the dead was raised up, that we might bear fruit to God;

A wretched man I am! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death?

and if Christ is in you, the body, indeed, is dead because of sin, and the Spirit is life because of righteousness,

for if according to the flesh ye do live, ye are about to die; and if, by the Spirit, the deeds of the body ye put to death, ye shall live;

And not only so, but also we ourselves, having the first-fruit of the Spirit, we also ourselves in ourselves do groan, adoption expecting -- the redemption of our body;

for as in one body we have many members, and all the members have not the same office,

so we, the many, one body are in Christ, and members each one of one another.

for I indeed, as being absent as to the body, and present as to the spirit, have already judged, as being present, him who so wrought this thing:

the meats are for the belly, and the belly for the meats. And God both this and these shall make useless; and the body is not for whoredom, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body;

have ye not known that he who is joined to the harlot is one body? 'for they shall be -- saith He -- the two for one flesh.'

flee the whoredom; every sin -- whatever a man may commit -- is without the body, and he who is committing whoredom, against his own body doth sin.

Have ye not known that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own,

for ye were bought with a price; glorify, then, God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

the wife over her own body hath not authority, but the husband; and, in like manner also, the husband over his own body hath not authority, but the wife.

The wife and the virgin have been distinguished: the unmarried is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit, and the married is anxious for the things of the world, how she shall please the husband.

but I chastise my body, and bring it into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved.

The cup of the blessing that we bless -- is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? the bread that we break -- is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?

because one bread, one body, are we the many -- for we all of the one bread do partake.

and having given thanks, he brake, and said, 'Take ye, eat ye, this is my body, that for you is being broken; this do ye -- to the remembrance of me.'

so that whoever may eat this bread or may drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, guilty he shall be of the body and blood of the Lord:

for he who is eating and drinking unworthily, judgment to himself he doth eat and drink -- not discerning the body of the Lord.

For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ,

for also in one Spirit we all to one body were baptized, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or freemen, and all into one Spirit were made to drink,

for also the body is not one member, but many;

if the foot may say, 'Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body;

and if the ear may say, 'Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body?

If the whole body were an eye, where the hearing? if the whole hearing, where the smelling?

and now, God did set the members each one of them in the body, according as He willed,

and if all were one member, where the body?

and now, indeed, are many members, and one body;

But much more the members of the body which seem to be more infirm are necessary,

and those that we think to be less honourable of the body, around these we put more abundant honour, and our unseemly things have seemliness more abundant,

and our seemly things have no need; but God did temper the body together, to the lacking part having given more abundant honour,

that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same anxiety for one another,

and ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

and if I give away to feed others all my goods, and if I give up my body that I may be burned, and have not love, I am profited nothing.

and that which thou dost sow, not the body that shall be dost thou sow, but bare grain, it may be of wheat, or of some one of the others,

and God doth give to it a body according as He willed, and to each of the seeds its proper body.

it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body;

at all times the dying of the Lord Jesus bearing about in the body, that the life also of Jesus in our body may be manifested,

having courage, then, at all times, and knowing that being at home in the body, we are away from home from the Lord, --

we have courage, and are well pleased rather to be away from the home of the body, and to be at home with the Lord.

for all of us it behoveth to be manifested before the tribunal of the Christ, that each one may receive the things done through the body, in reference to the things that he did, whether good or evil;

I have known a man in Christ, fourteen years ago -- whether in the body I have not known, whether out of the body I have not known, God hath known -- such an one being caught away unto the third heaven;

and I have known such a man -- whether in the body, whether out of the body, I have not known, God hath known, --

Henceforth, let no one give me trouble, for I the scars of the Lord Jesus in my body do bear.

which is his body, the fulness of Him who is filling the all in all,

and might reconcile both in one body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity in it,

that the nations be fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of His promise in the Christ, through the good news,

one body and one Spirit, according as also ye were called in one hope of your calling;

unto the perfecting of the saints, for a work of ministration, for a building up of the body of the Christ,

from whom the whole body, being fitly joined together and united, through the supply of every joint, according to the working in the measure of each single part, the increase of the body doth make for the building up of itself in love.

because the husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ is head of the assembly, and he is saviour of the body,

because members we are of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones;

according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, and in all freedom, as always, also now Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death,

who shall transform the body of our humiliation to its becoming conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working of his power, even to subject to himself the all things.

And himself is the head of the body -- the assembly -- who is a beginning, a first-born out of the dead, that he might become in all things -- himself -- first,

in the body of his flesh through the death, to present you holy, and unblemished, and unblameable before himself,

I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and do fill up the things lacking of the tribulations of the Christ in my flesh for his body, which is the assembly,

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

which are a shadow of the coming things, and the body is of the Christ;

and not holding the head, from which all the body -- through the joints and bands gathering supply, and being knit together -- may increase with the increase of God.

which are, indeed, having a matter of wisdom in will-worship, and humble-mindedness, and neglecting of body -- not in any honour, unto a satisfying of the flesh.
