1 Corintios 15:40

40 Así mismo hay cuerpos celestes y cuerpos terrestres; pero el esplendor de los cuerpos celestes es uno, y el de los cuerpos terrestres es otro.

1 Corintios 15:40 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 15:40

There are also celestial bodies
Or bodies in the heavens, as the sun, moon, and stars:

and bodies terrestrial;
or bodies on earth, animate and inanimate, men, beasts, trees, minerals

But the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the
terrestrial is another:
though both sorts are bodies, yet their qualities differ, and there is a greater glory in the one than in the other. This is another similitude, serving to help our ideas of this doctrine of the resurrection of the body; that though it is the same in substance, yet different in qualities; and does not design any difference between the bodies of good men and bad men, elect and reprobate; as if the one were intended by the celestial bodies, and the other by the terrestrial; and much less degrees of glory in the saints themselves, who, imagine them in as low a form as can be, can never be compared to terrestrial ones; but it shows the difference there will be between the raised bodies and the present ones; which will be as great as that which now is between celestial and terrestrial bodies.

1 Corintios 15:40 In-Context

38 Pero Dios le da el cuerpo que quiso darle, y a cada clase de semilla le da un cuerpo propio.

39 No todos los cuerpos son iguales: hay cuerpos humanos; también los hay de animales terrestres, de aves y de peces.

40 Así mismo hay cuerpos celestes y cuerpos terrestres; pero el esplendor de los cuerpos celestes es uno, y el de los cuerpos terrestres es otro.

41 Uno es el esplendor del sol, otro el de la luna y otro el de las estrellas. Cada estrella tiene su propio brillo.

42 Así sucederá también con la resurrección de los muertos. Lo que se siembra en corrupción, resucita en incorrupción;
