Tertullian, on 1Cor 15:44
Tertullian · c. A.D. 150–220
1Cor 15:44 · Douay-Rheims
“It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:”
On this verse:
“And thus, too, the same flesh must be understood in a preceding passage: "That which is sown is the natural body, and that which rises again is the spiritual body; because that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural: since the first Adam was made a living soul, the last Adam a quickening spirit." It is all about man, and all about the flesh because about man.”
