Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Corinthians 15:45

45. so —in accordance with the distinction just mentioned between the natural or animal-souled body and the spiritual body. it is written — ( :- ); "Man became (was made to become) a living soul," that is, endowed with an animal soul, the living principle of his body. the last Adam —the LAST Head of humanity, who is to be fully manifested in the last day, which is His day ( John 6:39 ). He is so called in Job 19:25 ; see on Job 19:25- : (compare Job 19:25- : ). In contrast to "the last," Paul calls "man" ( Genesis 2:7 ) "the FIRST Adam." quickening —not only living, but making alive ( John 5:21 ; John 6:33 ; John 6:39 ; John 6:40 ; John 6:54 ; John 6:57 ; John 6:62 ; John 6:63 ; Romans 8:11 ). As the natural or animal-souled body ( Romans 8:11- : ) is the fruit of our union with the first Adam, an animal-souled man, so the spiritual body is the fruit of our union with the second Adam, who is the quickening Spirit ( Romans 8:11- : ). As He became representative of the whole of humanity in His union of the two natures, He exhausted in His own person the sentence of death passed on all men, and giveth spiritual and everlasting life to whom He will. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-46" class="com-number"
