“But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.”
King James Version (KJV)
15:38 But God - Not thou, O man, not the grain itself, giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, from the time he distinguished the various Species of beings; and to each of the seeds, not only of the fruits, but animals also, (to which the Apostle rises in the following verse,) its own body; not only peculiar to that species, but proper to that individual, and arising out of the substance of that very grain.
1Co 15:38 But God giveth . . . to every seed his own body. To the seed planted God gives a new body, the stalk of wheat or corn, or whatever it may be. This new body bears no outward resemblance to the seed planted.
But God giueth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to euery seed his owne body.
