1 Corintios 15:44 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 15:44

It is sown a natural body
Or an animal one, being generated as animals are, and supported with food as they be, and die at last as they do: see ( Ecclesiastes 3:19-21 ) .

It is raised a spiritual body;
not as to substance, but as to its quality; it will not be changed into a spirit; our Lord's risen body, to which ours will be conformed, was not a spirit, but, as before, consisted of flesh and bones: but the body will then be subject to the spirit and soul of man; it will be employed in spiritual service, for which it will be abundantly fitted and assisted by the Spirit of God; and it will be delighted with spiritual objects; it will be like the angels, those excellent spirits; it will live as spirits do, without natural helps and means, as meat, drink, clothes, sleep, and, as they, will never die:

there is a natural;
or "animal body", such as the first man's was, and those are that descend from him by ordinary generation; and

there is a spiritual body;
such as the body of Christ now is, and as will be the bodies of the risen saints; the phrase is Jewish, (ynxwrh) (Pwgh) , "the spiritual body" ^F25 and the flesh of the righteous, being (Mynxwr Mrvb) , "spiritual flesh" ^F26, are to be met with in their writings.

1 Corintios 15:44 In-Context

42 Así es también la resurrección de los muertos. Se siembra un cuerpo corruptible, se resucita un cuerpo incorruptible;

43 se siembra en deshonra, se resucita en gloria; se siembra en debilidad, se resucita en poder;

44 se siembra un cuerpo natural, se resucita un cuerpo espiritual. Si hay un cuerpo natural, hay también un cuerpo espiritual.

45 Así también está escrito: El primer HOMBRE, Adán, FUE HECHO ALMA VIVIENTE. El último Adán, espíritu que da vida.

46 Sin embargo, el espiritual no es primero, sino el natural; luego el espiritual.
