1 Corinthians 15:45-49

Christ Is Risen, the Dead Will Be Raised, and Death Will Be Destroyed

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

45So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam a life-giving spirit.

46The spiritual, however, was not first, but the natural, and then the spiritual.

47The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven.

48As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.

49And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so also shall we bear the likeness of the heavenly man.
