The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 15:45

The two Adams. "The first man," etc. A specification of some of the points between the two Adams of resemblances and of dissimilarity will suggest a line of spiritual thought at once interesting, instructive, and practical. I. THE RESEMBLANCE . 1. The existence of each rose not in the ordinary course of nature. Neither came by the ordinary laws of human generation. The first was formed out of the dust of the earth, and derived his spirit from the breath of God. The second was... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 15:45

"The last Adam." The apostle has supported the Christian belief in the resurrection by adducing natural analogies, and these will always possess a certain measure of force for intelligent and reflective minds. But it is observable that he returns to what is the strongest ground of belief in the future life and all which it involves, viz. the personal relation of the Christian to his Divine and mighty Lord. The foundation of our hope is in the assurance of our Saviour, "Because I live, ye... read more

And so it is written, - Genesis 2:7. It is only the first part of the verse which is quoted.The first man Adam was made a living soul - This is quoted exactly from the translation by the Septuagint, except that the apostle has added the words “first” and “Adam.” This is done to designate whom he meant. The meaning of the phrase “was made a living soul” (ἐγένετο εις ψυκὴν ζωσαν egeneto eis psuchēn zōsan - in Hebrew, נפשׁ חיה nephesh chayaah is, became a living, animated being; a being... read more

1 Corinthians 15:45-46. And so it is written With respect to the animal body, Genesis 2:7. The first Adam was made a living soul God gave him animal life, in many respects resembling that of other animals; the last Adam was made Rather was, or is, for there is nothing in the original for made; a quickening Spirit Having life in himself, and quickening whom he will: imparting even a more refined life to men’s bodies at the resurrection, than that which they formerly possessed.... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Corinthians 15:35-58

The resurrection body (15:35-58)Some people mocked the idea of the resurrection by asking how could bodies that have decayed in the earth be raised to life again. Paul answers with an illustration. A seed dies when it is put in the ground, but this is part of the process of bringing forth new life in the form of a plant that grows up out of the ground. What grows up is different from what was buried, but in a sense it is the same thing. It is dry and dead looking when put in the ground, but... read more

So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.For an extended discussion of the similarities and contrasts between Adam I and Adam II, see my Commentary on Romans, pp. 205-212. Of course, there were far more contrasts than similarities between Adam and Christ; but the position that each holds as head of the natural creation (of man) on the one hand, and head of the spiritual creation on the other is similar.The passage Paul quoted here... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - 1 Corinthians 15:45

1 Corinthians 15:45. The first man Adam was made a living soul;— An animal with life, ψυχη,— anima, whence animal in the preceding verses. See 1Th 5:23 and the note on Genesis 2:7. The last clause is not a quotation from Scripture, as some have thought, but what the Apostle adds on occasion of the quotation from Genesis; as if he had said, "Christ is the last Adam, as an illustrious type of the first (Romans 5:14.); and he hath in himself a Spirit, with which he quickeneth whom he pleases, and... read more

3. The resurrection body 15:35-49Paul next addressed the objection that the resurrection of the body is impossible because when a person dies his or her body decomposes and no one can reassemble it. The Corinthians seem to have wanted to avoid thinking that the material body was essentially good. Hellenistic dualism seems to have influenced their thinking about the human body and, therefore, the resurrection. Dualism is the philosophy, so common in pagan Greek thought, that the body is only the... read more
