God gives it a body as he pleases, gives each kind of seed a body of its own. Flesh is not all the same; there is human flesh, there is flesh of beasts, flesh of birds, and flesh of fish. There are heavenly bodies and also earthly bodies, but the splendour of the heavenly is one thing and the splendour of the earthly is another. There is a splendour of the sun and a splendour of the moon and a splendour of the stars ??for one star differs from another in splendour. So with the resurrection of the dead: what is sown is mortal, what rises is immortal; sown inglorious, it rises in glory; sown in weakness, it rises in power; sown an animate body, it rises a spiritual body. As there is an animate body, so there is a spiritual body. Thus it is written, 'The first man, Adam, became an animate being, the last Adam a life-giving Spirit'; but the animate, not the spiritual, comes first, and only then the spiritual. Man the first is from the earth, material; Man the second is from heaven. As Man the material is, so are the material; as Man the heavenly is, so are the heavenly. Thus, as we have borne the likeness of material Man, so we are to bear the likeness of the heavenly Man.
