## 1 Corinthians 15:36-42 in Context (Verses 33–45 KJV)
 
 [33 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/33) Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
 
 [34 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/34) Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak *this* to your shame.
 
 [35 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/35) But some *man* will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
 
 [36 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/36) *Thou* fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:
 
 [37 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/37) And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other *grain*:
 
 [38 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/38) But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
 
 [39 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/39) All flesh *is* not the same flesh: but *there is* one *kind of* flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, *and* another of birds.
 
 [40 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/40) *There are* also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial *is* one, and the *glory* of the terrestrial *is* another.
 
 [41 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/41) *There is* one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for *one* star differeth from *another* star in glory.
 
 [42 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/42) So also *is* the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
 
 [43 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/43) It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
 
 [44 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/44) It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
 
 [45 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/15/45) And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam *was made* a quickening spirit.
 
[1 Corinthians 14](/kjv/1-corinthians/14) [1 Corinthians 16](/kjv/1-corinthians/16)
