Tertullian — on 2Cor 5:2 (Against Marcion Book V)

Patristic A.D. 220
Tertullian · c. A.D. 150–220
“He treats of this subject in order to offer consolation against the fear of death and the dread of this very dissolution, as is even more manifest from what follows, when he adds, that "in this tabernacle of our earthly body we do groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with the vesture which is from heaven, if so be, that having been unclothed, we shall not be found naked; "in other words, shall regain that of which we have been divested, even our body.”
