1 Corinthians 15:35

But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

How? It is folly to deny a fact of REVELATION because we do not know the "how." Some measure God's power by their intelligence, and won't admit, even on His assurance, what they cannot explain. Ezekiel answer of faith to the question is the truly wise one (). So Jesus argues not on principles of philosophy, but wholly from 'the power of God,' declared by His word ().

Come. The dead are said to depart, or be deceased; those rising again, to come. The objector could not understand how the dead rise, and with what kind of a body they come. Is it to be the same body? If so, how is this, since the resurrection bodies will not eat or drink, or beget children, as the natural bodies do? hides, the latter have mouldered into dust. How, then, can they rise again? If it be a different body, how can the personal identity he preserved? Paul answers, In one sense it will be the same, in another, a distinct body. It will be a body, but a spiritual, not a natural body.
