TSNTyndale Study Notes:

15:1-58 Some people in the church had doubts about a future resurrection of the dead. Paul reassures them and, perhaps in response to their skeptical questions, discusses the nature of a resurrection body.

TTNTyndale Theme Notes:

The Resurrection of the Dead

Jesus spoke of a future resurrection of all people—either to eternal life or to judgment (Mark 12:26-27; John 5:28-29; 6:39-40, 44, 54; 11:25-26; cp. Luke 20:34-36). When Christ returns, all his people will be resurrected to be with him forever (1 Thes 4:13-18; cp. 2 Cor 5:1-10).

This strong hope characterized the outlook of the early Christians. They were able to endure their suffering because their eyes were fixed on what lay beyond this life (2 Cor 4:16-18; cp. Heb 12:2). They expected Jesus to return and resurrect their bodies, and they looked forward to living with him forever (1 Pet 1:3-6, 23). Their faith was based on the foundation of Jesus’ own bodily resurrection (1 Cor 15:12-20; Acts 4:33; see also 2 Cor 4:14).

Resurrection bodies will be fundamentally different from the bodies we experience in this life, with all of their limitations and failings. These renewed bodies will be glorious, strong, immortal, and spiritual, like Christ’s own resurrection body (1 Cor 15:35-58).

Because they are already joined to Christ, believers actually begin to experience resurrection existence here and now. They have already been “raised” with Christ; they have already been given “resurrection life” (Rom 6:4-11; 8:10-11; Col 2:12). As a result, their lives are now centered in the spiritual realities of heaven rather than in worldly things (Col 3:1-4). Believers can experience the transforming power of that new life here and now, the new life of the Spirit that frees them from the power of sin and death (Rom 8:1-4). In all the difficulties they face, their trust is not in themselves but in the resurrection power of God (2 Cor 1:9).

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

ἐπειδὴ

since

Here, since introduces a logical statement about how things work. Paul assumes that everyone agrees that death is by a man. His point is that, since things work that way, by a man also resurrection of the dead. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express since with a word or phrase that introduces this kind of logical connection. Alternate translation: “since we know that” or “because it is true that”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

δι’ ἀνθρώπου θάνατος

by /a/_man death_‹is›

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind death, you can express the idea by using a verb such as “die.” Alternate translation: “everyone dies by a man”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo

δι’ ἀνθρώπου & καὶ δι’ ἀνθρώπου

by /a/_man & also by /a/_man

Here, the first man that Paul refers to would be “Adam,” the first man. When Adam sinned, death became a part of human life (See: especially Genesis 3:17–19). The second man that Paul refers to is Christ, whose resurrection guarantees and begins the resurrection of the dead. However, since Paul explains this in the next verse (15:22), if possible do not include this information here. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate a man to make it clear that a specific man is in view in both cases. Alternate translation: “is by a specific man, by a specific man also”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

δι’ ἀνθρώπου θάνατος, καὶ δι’ ἀνθρώπου ἀνάστασις

by /a/_man death_‹is› also by /a/_man resurrection

In both clauses, Paul omits the verb is because the Corinthians would infer it. If your readers would not infer this verb, you could include it in the first clause (as the ULT does) or in both clauses. Alternate translation: “death is by a man, by a man also is the resurrection”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἀνάστασις νεκρῶν

resurrection ˱of˲_/the/_dead_‹is›

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind resurrection, you can express the idea by using a verb such as “resurrect” or “live again.” Alternate translation: “the dead will resurrect” or “the dead will be restored to life”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

νεκρῶν

˱of˲_/the/_dead_‹is›

Paul is using the adjective dead as a noun in order to refer to all people who are dead. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this with a noun phrase. Alternate translation: “of the dead people” or “of the corpses”
