1 Corinthians 15:34-36
1599 Geneva Bible
34 Awake to live righteously, and sin not: for some have not the knowledge of God, I speak this to your shame.
35 [a]But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body come they forth?
36 [b]O fool, that which thou sowest, is not quickened, except it die.

- 1 Corinthians 15:35 Now that he hath proved the resurrection, he discovereth their doltishness, in that they scoffingly demanded, how it could be that the dead should rise again, and if they did rise again, they asked mockingly, what manner of bodies they should have. Therefore he sendeth these fellows which seemed to themselves to be marvelous wise and witty, to be instructed of poor rude husbandmen.
- 1 Corinthians 15:36 Thou mightest have learned either of these, saith Paul, by daily experience: for seeds are sown, and rot, and yet notwithstanding so far it is off, that they perish, that contrarywise they grow up far more beautiful: and whereas they are sown naked and dry, they spring up green from death by the virtue of God: and doth it seem incredible to thee that our bodies should rise from corruption, and that endued with a far more excellent quality?
1 Corinthians 15:34-36
