Questions Concerning the Resurrection Body

³⁵ But someone will say, “How are the dead raised? And with what sort of body do they come?” ³⁶ Foolish person! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. ³⁷ And what you sow is not the body which it will become, but you sow the bare seed, whether perhaps of wheat or of some of the rest. ³⁸ But God gives to it a body just as he wishes, and to each one of the seeds its own body. ³⁹ Not all flesh is the same, but there is one flesh of human beings, and another flesh of animals, and another flesh of birds, and another of fish, ⁴⁰ and heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the glory of the heavenly bodies is of one kind, and the glory of the earthly bodies is of another kind. ⁴¹ There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory.
