The Key Word — ἀτόμῳ, atomosgenerated
The word ἄτομος is an adjective meaning 'instant' or 'indivisible.' It is derived from a negative prefix and a root meaning 'to cut,' emphasizing a moment that cannot be divided further.
In this context, it highlights the rapidity of the event — the transformation of believers at the resurrection will occur in a flash, without delay.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as in an instant, which aligns with the KJV and ASV that use in a moment. Both phrases convey the idea of a very brief time frame.
Translations differ slightly in their choice of words. The BSB uses imperishable, while the KJV and ASV use incorruptible for ἄφθαρτοι, but both terms express the same concept of something that does not decay.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the passage is σαλπίσει, will sound, which governs the clauses that describe the events surrounding the resurrection. It introduces the action of the trumpet sounding and what follows for the dead and the living.
The structure includes three main clauses: the first describes the timing of the event, the second details the resurrection of the dead, and the third states the transformation of believers.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
σάλπιγξ occurs in the Septuagint, often linked to ceremonial and military contexts, as seen in Numbers 10:2. It conveys the significance of a call to action or announcement, which resonates with the resurrection theme.
The term ἄφθαρτος also appears in the Septuagint, typically in discussions of immortality or divine attributes, reinforcing the idea of eternal life.

We read of this last trump, . There shall (saith the apostle) be such a sound made; and upon the making of it, the saints, that are dead, shall be raised out of their graves; not with such bodies as they carried thither, (which were corruptible), but with such bodies as shall be no more subject to corruption; and those who at that time shall be alive, shall one way or another be changed…

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(52) The last trump.—The trumpet was used to summon an assembly (Exodus 20:18; Psalms 81:3; Isaiah 18:3; Isaiah 27:13) or to sound a warning. The last trumpet is the one which concludes a series which have already been sounding at intervals in notes of warning to the nations (Psalms 47:5; Isaiah 27:13; Jeremiah 51:27). This verse states with reiterated emphasis that this change shall not be a protracted process, but a sudden and momentary alteration in the condition of our bodies.

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
In momento, in ictu oculi, in novissima tuba : canet enim tuba, et mortui resurgent incorrupti : et nos immutabimur.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

This is a map of two things, both counted rather than judged. Company kept: which words stand within three words of each of these, anywhere in the Greek New Testament — the thicker the line, the more often the pair meet compared with chance.

A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

The Greek word ἄτομος (i.e., *atomos*) means 'indivisible' or 'uncut.' It refers primarily to a moment in time, as seen in 1 Corinthians 15:52. The term is built from a negative prefix and a root meaning 'to cut.' While most entries agree on its meaning related to time, some also note its application to particles of matter.

The Greek word ῥιπή (rhipē) refers to a rapid movement or twinkling, often associated with the quickness of an eye blink. It is derived from the verb ῥίπτω and encompasses various swift actions, such as the flight of a javelin or the rush of wind. In the New Testament, it specifically denotes the 'twinkling of an eye' in 1 Corinthians 15:52.

The Greek word ὀφθαλμός (transliterated as ophthalmos) means 'eye' and is used both literally and figuratively. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often relating to physical sight, metaphorical vision, and ethical qualities like envy. The word is derived from roots associated with seeing and encompasses a range of meanings, including the eye's role in perception and understanding.

i (`ayin; ophthalmos):
(1) The physical organ of sight, "the lamp of the body" (Mt 6:22), one of the chief channels of information for man. A cruel custom therefore sanctioned among heathen nations the putting out of the eyes of an enemy or a rival, because thus his power was most effectually shattered (Jud 16:21; 2Ki 25:7; Jer 39:7). Such blinding or putting out of the "right eye" was also considered a deep humiliation, as it robbed the victim of his beauty, and made him unfit to take his part in war (1Sa 11:2; Zec 11:17).
Eye
(Heb. ‘ain, meaning “flowing”), applied (1) to a fountain, frequently; (2) to colour (Num. 11:7; R.V., “appearance,” marg. “eye”); (3) the face (Ex. 10:5, 15; Num. 22:5, 11), in Num. 14:14, “face to face” (R.V. marg., “eye to eye”). “Between the eyes”, i.e., the forehead (Ex. 13:9, 16).
The expression (Prov. 23:31), “when it giveth his colour in the cup,” is literally, “when it giveth out [or showeth] its eye.” The beads or bubbles of wine are thus spoken of. “To set the eyes” on any one is to view him with favour (
(The practice of painting the eyelids to make the eyes look large, lustrous and languishing is often alluded to in the Old Testament, and still extensively prevails among the women of the East, and especially among the Mohammedans. Jezebel, in (2 Kings 9:30) is said to have prepared for her meeting with Jehu by painting her face, or, as it reads in the margin, "put her eyes in paint." See also (Ezekiel 23:40) A small probe of wood, ivory or silver is wet with rose-water and dipped in an impalpable black powder, and is then drawn between the lids of the eye nearly closed, and leaves a narrow black border, which is though a great ornament. --ED.)
The same Hebrew word means both eye and fountain. Besides its common use, to denote the organ of sight, it is often used figuratively in the Bible. Most of these passages, however, require no explanation. The custom of sealing up the eyes of criminals, still practiced in the East, is thought to be alluded to in Isa 6:10 44:18. The expression, "As the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters," Ps 123:2, is elucidated by a knowledge of the fact that many eastern servants are taught to stand always upon the watch, and are in general directed by a nod, a wink, or some slight motion of the fingers imperceptible to strangers. Many Scripture phrases intimate the soul-like nature of the eye, quickly and truly expressing the thoughts of the heart: such as "the bountiful eye"…

The most frequent preposition in the New Testament, 2,752 occurrences. In, on, at, among, within — its force comes almost entirely from the word it is attached to. What it does here is put the events inside a community rather than at a distance: they were fulfilled among us.

a primary preposition denoting (fixed) position (in place, time or

constructively), i.e. a relation of rest (intermediate between 1519
and 1537); "in," at, (up-)on, by, etc.:--about, after, against, +

import; rarely with verbs of motion, and then not to indicate
direction, except (elliptically) by a separate (and different)
preposition.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ἔσχατος (i.e., *eschatos*) means 'last' or 'utmost.' It can refer to the final position in space or time, as well as the lowest rank or degree. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts discussing the end times and the last days, such as in Matthew 12:45 and 1 Peter 1:20. The lexicons generally agree on its meanings and applications.

The Greek word σάλπιγξ (lemma: salpinx) means 'trumpet' and is associated with both military and religious contexts. It appears in various New Testament passages, including 1 Corinthians 14:8 and Revelation 1:10. The term can also refer to a trumpet blast, as seen in Matthew 24:31 and 1 Thessalonians 4:16. The entries indicate its use from ancient times, with some metaphorical applications noted.

The Lord commanded Moses to make two trumpets of beaten silver, for the purpose of calling the people together when they were to decamp, Nu 10:2. They used these trumpets to proclaim the beginning of the civil year, of the sabbatical year, Le 23:24 Nu 29:1, and of the jubilee, Le 25:9-10. See MUSIC.

The Greek word σαλπίζω (i.e. *salpizō*) means 'to sound a trumpet' and can be used literally or metaphorically. It appears in the New Testament in verses like Matthew 6:2 and 1 Corinthians 15:52. The word is derived from a root meaning to trumpet and has been used in various contexts, including signaling and announcing.
σαλπίζω
[in LXX chiefly for תָּקַע ;]
to sound a trumpet: Re 8:6 ff. 9:1, 13 10:7 11:15; metaph., Mt 6:2. Impers., the trumpet sounds: I Co 15:52.†
σαλπίζω, ‘sound a trumpet,’ is often understood metaph. in Mt 65, as by Klostermann in 4ZN7, where he compares the use of the subst. in Achilles Tatius viii. 10 οὐχ ὑπὸ σάλπιγγι μόνον ἀλλὰ Kal κήρυκι μοιχεύεται. For a defence of the literal meaning by a reference to the sounding of the ram’s horn (shofar) on the occasion of public fasts, see Biichler in JTS x. (1909), p. 266 ff., also Klein in ZV7TV vi.

sound: In Isa 63:15 the King James Version has "the sounding of thy bowels," a painfully literal translation of hamon me'eykha, with the similar phrase, "my bowels shall sound like an harp," in Isa 16:11 (compare Jer 48:36). The intestines were considered a seat of emotion, and at times of great excitement were thought (in poetry, at least) to become tense and to give forth a musical sound. The Revised Version (British and American) (following the King James Version in Jer 48:36) substitutes "heart" for "bowels" in Isa 16:11, thus obscuring the figure but preserving the sense. In

The Greek word γάρ (gar) is a coordinating particle primarily used to introduce reasons or explanations, similar to 'for' in English. It can serve various functions, including causal, explicative, and conclusive, and is often placed after the first word in a clause. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts that clarify or justify preceding statements, aligning with its classical usage.
γάρ, a conjunction, which ace. to its composition, γέ and dpa (i. 4. ἄρ), is properly a particle of affirmation and conclusion, denoting truly therefore, verily as the case stands, “ the thing is first aflirmed by the particle yé, and then is referred to what precedes by the force of the particle dpa” (Klotz ad Devar. ii. 1, p. 232; οἵ. Kiihner ii. p. 724; [Jelf § 786; W. 445 (415) sq-]). Now since by a new affirmation not infrequently the reason and nature of something previously mentioned are set forth, it comes to pass that, by the use of this particle, either the reason and cause of a foregoing statement is added, whence arises the causal or argumentative force of the particle, for (Lat. nam, enim; Germ. denn) ; or some previous declaration is explained, whence γάρ takes on an ex plicative force: YP Sor, the fact is, namely (Lat. videlicet, Germ. ndmilich). Thus the force of the…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

νεκρός is an adjective meaning 'dead,' derived from a root associated with corpses. It describes both literal death and metaphorical states, such as spiritual death or being inactive. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, including references to the dead (e.g., Mt 11:5) and spiritual conditions (e.g., Ro 6:13). The word can also function as a noun, referring to the dead as a group.

ded (muth; nekros): Used in several senses:
(1) as a substantive, denoting the body deprived of life, as when Abraham speaks of burying his dead (Ge 23);
(2) as a collective noun including all those that have passed away from life (as Re 20:12). In several passages dead in this sense is used in contrast to the quick or living (as Nu 16:48). This collective mode of expression is used when resurrection is described as "rising from the dead";

The Greek word ἐγείρω (*egeirō*) means to awaken or arouse, both literally and metaphorically. It encompasses a range of meanings, including waking from sleep, raising from the dead, and stirring oneself to action. In the New Testament, it frequently refers to resurrection and spiritual awakening, appearing in verses like John 5:21 and Romans 13:11. The lexicons note its use in various contexts, including raising buildings and stirring up emotions.

The Greek word ἄφθαρτος (i.e., aphthartos) is built from a negative particle and a root meaning 'to corrupt.' It encompasses meanings such as imperishable, immortal, and uncorrupted, applicable to both things and persons. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts related to the divine and the resurrection, notably in 1 Corinthians and 1 Peter.
Ir is a remarkable testimony to the reign of sin, and therefore of imperfection, of decay, of death, throughout this whole fallen world, that as often as we desire to set forth the glory, purity, and perfection of that other higher world towards which we strive, we are almost inevitably compelled to do this by the aid of negatives, by the denying to that higher order of things the leading features and characteristics of this. Such is signally the case in a passage wherein two of the words with which we are now dealing occur. St. Peter, magnifying the inheritance reserved in heaven for the faithful (1 Pet. 1 4), does this,—and he had hardly any choice in the matter,—by aid of three negatives; by affirming that it is ἄφθαρτος,, or without our corruption ; that it 15 ἀμίαντος, or without our defilement ; that it is ἀμάραντος, or without our withering and fading away. He can only set forth…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

Deissmann (ZAZ p. 134 ff.) has drawn attention to the parallels to the solemn use of the first personal pronoun in the Fourth Gospel that may be adduced from inscriptions and magical texts. Thus in an inscr. in honour of Isis from Ios, written in ii/iii A.p., the contents of which are preChristian, we find —Elows ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ τ[ύρανν]ος πάσης χόρας.. ἐγὼ νόμους ἀνθρώποις ἐθέμην . . ἐγώ εἰμι Kpdvov θυγάτηρ πρεσβυτάτη α΄. And similarly in the magical papyrus P Lond 4645 (iv/a.p.) (=I. p. 69) ἐγώ εἰμι ὃ ἀκέφαλος δαίμων . . ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἀλήθεια ὁ μεισῶν ἀδικήματα γείνεσθαι ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ α΄. With the construction of the phrase τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί ; in Jn 24 we may compare BGU IV. 1141°8 (n.c. 14) ἐδίδουν αὐτῷ διαστολὰς μηδὲν αὐτῶι καὶ ἐκείνωι εἶναι : for its meaning see Ε΄. C. Burkitt in 77:5 xiii. p- 594f., where it is rendered, ‘‘ What have I and thou to do with that ?” On the difficult…

2,029 occurrences in the New Testament, rendered 27 different ways. The commonest English word for it is not its meaning — it is one translator's decision, repeated.
The Greek word ἀλλάσσω (allassō) is built from the root ἄλλος and means to change, alter, or transform. It covers a range of meanings including exchanging one thing for another and adapting forms of discourse. In the New Testament, it appears in verses like Acts 6:14 and Romans 1:23. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement.
ἀλλάσσω : fut. ἀλλάξω; 1 aor. ἤλλαξα; 2 fut. pass. ἀλλαγήσομαι ; (ἄλλος) ; [fr. Aeschyl. down]; to change: to cause one thing to cease and another to take its place, τὰ ἔθη, Acts vi. 14; τὴν φωνήν to vary the voice, i. 6. to speak in a different manner according to the different conditions of minds, to adapt the matter and form of discourse to mental moods, to treat them now severely, now gently, Gal. iv. 20 [but see Meyer ad loc.]. to exchange one thing for another: τὶ ἔν τινι; Ro. i. 23 (2 VA Ps. ev. (evi.) 20; the Greeks say ἀλλάσσειν τί τινος [cf. W. 206 (194), 388 (363); Vaughan on Βοπι.]. 6.7). to transform: 1 Co. xv. 51 sq.; Heb. i. 12. [Comp.: ἀπ- δὲ-» κατ-, ἀπο-κατ-. pet-, συν-αλλάσσω.}
ἀλλάσσω. As so often happens, the simple verb (MGr ἀλλάζω) is outnumbered greatly by its compounds. We may cite Sy/ 1784. (iv/B.c.) κεκτῆσθαι kal ἀλλάσσεσθαι καὶ ἀποδόσθαι, P Oxy IV. γ29 58 (A.D. 137) ἐὰν δὲ αἱρώμεθα ἀλλάσσειν κτήνη ἢ πωλεῖν ἔξεσται ἡμεῖν, Ρ Lips 1. 107% (middle iii/A.p.) ἀλλάξας τὸν λόγον, BGU IV. 11414) 44 (Augustus), where a πορφυρᾶ has been “ bartered,” P Oxy IV. 729" (A.D. 137) in association with πωλεῖν. In P Tebt I. 124} (c. B.c. 118) “εἠλλαγμένοι scems to be equivalent to ἀπηλλαγμένοι rather than to have the meaning ‘exchange’” (Edd.). An illiterate papyrus of A.D. 75 may be cited for the construction: BGU Il. 597'° ἀλλαξέτω σε αὐτὸν (sc. a sack of wheat) Πασίων καλοῖς σπέρμασει. Σέ here is we suppose for σοί: the dative σπέρμασι reminds us of the NT ἐν ὁμοιώματι (Rom 123, from LXX), since the addition of ἐν to a dative is nothing out of the way. (Of course we…

Counted over the 15 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.
νυνὶ δὲ τοσοῦτον ἔστησε μηχάνημα κατὰ τῆς ψυχῆς, ὥστε ἡγεμόσιν αὐτὴν χρῆσθαι τυφλοῖς ἠνάγκασε, παρακρουσαμένη καὶ ἀναπείσασα κακῶν ἀρετὴν ἀλλάξαι καὶ ἀντιδοῦναι πονηρῶν ἀκακίαν.

ἐὰν γάρ, φασί, διὰ τῶν χειρῶν τῶν παρθένων τούτων μὴ παρενεχθῶσι διὰ τῆς πύλης, τὰς χρόας αὐτῶν ἀλλάξαι οὐ δύνανται: μὴ κοπιᾶτε οὖν, φασίν, εἰς μάτην.
