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: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἕκαστος δὲ ἐν τῷ ἰδίῳ τάγματι & Χριστός

each but in his own order & Christ

Here, in his own order identifies that things happen in a specific sequence or in turn. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express in his own order with a word or phrase that does introduce a sequence. Alternate translation: “But these things happen in sequence: first, Christ”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ἕκαστος & ἐν τῷ ἰδίῳ τάγματι

each & in his own order

Here Paul omits some words that your language may need to make a complete thought. The Corinthians would have understood him to mean that, first, each is made alive in his own order. If your readers would not make this inference, you could include these words. Alternate translation: “each will be made alive in his own order”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ἐν τῷ ἰδίῳ

in his own

Although his is masculine, Paul is using it to refer to anyone, whether man or woman. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express his with a non gendered word or refer to both genders. Alternate translation: “in his or her own” or “in their own”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀπαρχὴ Χριστός

/the/_first-fruit Christ

Here, just as in 15:20, firstfruits refers to what farmers first gathered from their fields. Often, these firstfruits were offered to God to thank him for providing food. What Paul emphasizes here is that firstfruits implies that there will be more “fruits”, that is, crops or produce. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express that Paul uses firstfruits to emphasize that Jesus’ resurrection implies that there will be more resurrections with an analogy or express the idea plainly. Alternate translation: “Christ, who is like the firstfruits” or “the guarantee”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν τῇ παρουσίᾳ αὐτοῦ

in at the coming ˱of˲_him

Here, his coming refers specifically to Jesus “coming back” to earth. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express at his coming with a phrase that more clearly refers to Jesus’ “second coming.” Alternate translation: “when he comes again” or “at his return”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

οἱ τοῦ Χριστοῦ

the_‹ones› ˱of˲_the Messiah

Here Paul uses the possessive form to describe the ones who belong to or believe in Christ. If your language does not use that form for this meaning, you can express the idea with a phrase such as “belong to” or “believe in.” Alternate translation: “those who believe in Christ”
