1 Corinthians 15:38 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

As it hath pleased him - at creation, when He gave to each of the (kinds of) seeds (so the Greek is for "to every seed") a body of its own (Genesis 1:11, "after its kind," suited to its species). So God will give to the blessed at the resurrection their own body, such as pleases Him, and is suitable to their glorified state: a body special to the individual, substantially the same as that sown.
