35. Someone will ask, “How can the dead be raised to life? What kind of body will they have?”
36. You fool! When you sow a seed in the ground, it does not sprout to life unless it dies.
37. And what you sow is a bare seed, perhaps a grain of wheat or some other grain, not the full-bodied plant that will later grow up.
38. God provides that seed with the body he wishes; he gives each seed its own proper body.
39. And the flesh of living beings is not all the same kind of flesh; human beings have one kind of flesh, animals another, birds another, and fish another.
40. And there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies; the beauty that belongs to heavenly bodies is different from the beauty that belongs to earthly bodies.
