    35But someone will ask, 'How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?'

    36Foolish one, what you sow does not come to life unless it dies.

    38But God gives it a body as He has determined, and to each kind of seed its own body.

    39Not all flesh is the same: humans have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds have another, and fish have another.
