John Chrysostom, on 1Cor 15:43

“It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.”

“"It is sown in dishonor." For what is more unsightly than a corpse in dissolution? "It is raised in glory." "It is sown in weakness." For before thirty days the whole is gone, and the flesh cannot keep itself together nor hold out for one day. "It is raised in power." For there shall nothing prevail against it for all the future. Here is why he stood in need of those former analogies, lest many on hearing of these things, that they are "raised in incorruption and glory and power," might suppose that there is no difference among those who rise again. For all indeed rise again, both in power and in incorruption; and in this glory of their incorruption yet are not all in the same state of honor and safety.”
