Context — The Resurrection Bodygenerated
1 Corinthians 15:53 is part of Paul's teaching on the resurrection of the dead. He emphasizes the necessity of transformation for believers, indicating that the mortal body must be changed to inherit eternal life. This teaching reassures the Corinthian church about the hope of resurrection and the promise of eternal life, contrasting the perishable nature of the current body with the imperishable state to come.

The Key Word — ἀθανασίαν, athanasiagenerated
The word ἀθανασία is a noun meaning 'immortality' and is derived from a combination of a negative particle and the term for death. It signifies a state of being that is free from death, as seen in its occurrences in the New Testament, such as in 1 Corinthians 15:54.
This term is crucial for understanding the Christian hope of eternal life, as it describes the ultimate state of believers who will be raised imperishable and immortal. The concept emphasizes the transformation that believers will undergo at the resurrection.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as For the perishable must be clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. The KJV and ASV use corruptible and put on, aligning closely with the BSB.
Where translations differ, the BSB uses imperishable while the ASV and KJV opt for incorruption. The term immortality is consistently used across most translations, except for the BBE, which phrases it as eternal life.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse consists of two main clauses connected by the conjunction γὰρ, which introduces the reasoning behind the necessity of transformation. The first clause states that the perishable must be clothed with the imperishable, while the second clause states that the mortal must be clothed with immortality.
The finite verb δεῖ governs the entire structure, indicating necessity. Each clause has a subject and an object, with the infinitive ἐνδύσασθαι indicating the action of putting on.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἀθανασία does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint but relates to concepts of life and existence found in various texts. The term captures the essence of life beyond death, which is a significant theme in both the New Testament and the Septuagint.
The use of ἐνδύω in the Septuagint corresponds to the Hebrew לָבֵשׁ, meaning to put on or clothe, which emphasizes the act of assuming a new state or identity.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated

As a spiritual body, it will be adapted to the needs of a spiritual state; and as an immortal and incorruptible body, it will be adapted to a life which is everlasting.

The mortal body is not destroyed entirely and created again. “Change,” says Tertullian, “must be dissociated from all idea of destruction. For change is one thing, destruction another.” It receives an addition of qualities which it did not possess before. It is ‘clothed upon’ with immortality.

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.

δεῖ is an impersonal verb meaning 'it is necessary' or 'one must,' derived from δέω. It covers a range of uses, often indicating obligation or necessity, and appears in various constructions, such as with infinitives or accusatives. In the New Testament, it is used in verses like Matthew 26:54 and Acts 5:29. The lexicons note that it differs from similar terms like ὀφείλει, which expresses moral obligation.

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…

CONJ CONJunction or conjunctive particle
for (ki (conjunction), le, from 'el (preposition), and various other words. In the New Testament also the words are various, chiefly gar, kai gar, hoti (conjunctions); anti apo eis dia (accusative), epi (dative and accusative), peri (genitive), pros (genitive and accusative), huper (genitive) (prepositions)): the English Revised Version and the American Standard Revised Version give in many cases more literal or more accurate renderings than those in the King James Version.
In the New Testament the most important preps. from a doctrinal point of view are anti, "face to face," "over against," "instead," "on behalf of," peri, "around," "about," "concerning," huper, "over," "on behalf of." The first has been claimed as stating the substitutionary nature of Christ's sacrifice as contrasted with huper and peri, more frequently used of it. But, although anti in the New Testament often means…

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 φθαρτός (phthartos) means perishable or corruptible, deriving from the verb φθείρω (phtheiro). It is used in the New Testament to describe things that decay, such as humans (Romans 1:23) and crowns (1 Corinthians 9:25), contrasting with the eternal (ἀφθαρτος). The term appears six times in the New Testament, emphasizing mortality and the transient nature of physical things.

The Greek word οὗτος (i.e., *houtos*) is a demonstrative pronoun meaning 'this' or 'this one.' It is used to refer to something nearby or recently mentioned, often with a connotation of contempt in certain contexts. In the New Testament, it appears in various forms, such as in Matthew 3:17 and John 1:15, and can also serve to emphasize or clarify a subject.

The Greek word ἐνδύω means 'to put on' or 'to clothe,' derived from the roots for 'in' and 'to sink.' It covers a range of meanings from literally putting on clothes to metaphorically assuming characteristics or roles, as seen in various New Testament passages like Matthew 27:31 and Romans 13:14. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its usage.

On
Light; the sun, (Gen. 41:45, 50), the great seat of sun-worship, called also Bethshemesh (Jer. 43:13) and Aven (Ezek. 30:17), stood on the east bank of the Nile, a few miles north of Memphis, and near Cairo, in the north-east. The Vulgate and the LXX. Versions have “Heliopolis” (“city of the sun”) instead of On in Genesis and of Aven in Ezekiel. The “city of destruction” Isaiah speaks of (19:18, marg. “of Heres;” Heb. ‘Ir-ha-heres, which some MSS. read Ir-ha-heres, i.e., “city of the sun”) may be the name given to On, the prophecy being that the time will come when that city which was known as the “city of the sun-god” shall become the “city of destruction” of the sun-god, i.e., when idolatry shall cease, and the worship…
(abode or city of the sun), a town of lower Egypt, called BETH-SHEMESH in (Jeremiah 43:13) On is better known under its Greek name Heliopolis. It was situated on the east side of the Pelusiac branch of the Nile, just below the point of the Delta, and about twenty miles northeast of Memphis. The chief object of worship at Heliopolis was the sun, whose temple, described by Strabo, is now only represented by the single beautiful obelisk, of red granite so feet 2 inches high above the pedestal which has stood for more than 4000 years, having been erected by Usirtesen, the second king of the twelfth dynasty. Heliopolis was anciently famous for its learning, and Eudoxus and Plato studied under its priests. The first mention of this place in the Bible is in the history of Joseph, to whom we read Pharaoh gave "to wife Asenath the daughter…

The Greek word ἀφθαρσία (i.e., *aphtharsia*) means incorruptibility or immortality, derived from ἄφθαρτος (i.e., *aphthartos*). It covers concepts of indestructibility, purity, and sincerity, appearing in several New Testament passages like Romans 2:7 and 1 Corinthians 15:42, 53, 54. Some lexicons also note its figurative use relating to genuineness.

Arist. ο. 6; of the body of man exempt from decay after the resurrection, 1 Co. xv. 42 (ἐν apé. se. ὄν), 50, 53 sq.; of a blessed immortality (Sap. ii. 23; vi. 19; 4 Mace. xvii. 12), Ro. ii. 7; 2 Tim. i. 10. τινὰ ἀγαπᾶν ἐν ἀφθαρcia to love one with never diminishing love, Eph. vi. 24 [cf. Mey. ad loc. The word seems to have the meauing purity, sincerity, incorruptness in Tit. ii. 7 Ree.**].
ἀφθαρσία. An interesting example of this word occurs in the fragment of the Gnostic Gospel from the beginning of iv/a.p., P Oxy VIII. 108114#-, where in contrast to the perishing of everything born of corruption (ἀπὸ φθορᾶς) we find τὸ] δὲ ye[t]vdpev[ov ἀπὸ] ἀφ[θ)]αρσίας [οὐκ ἀπο]γείν[εται] ἀλλ[ὰ μ)έν[ει] ἄφίϑαρ]τον ὡς ἀπὸ ἀ[φ]θ[αρσία)ς γεγονός. It is also quoted from Epicurus (605) τὴν μετὰ ἀφθαρσίας μακαριότητα : see Linde, p. 43, where other literary parallels are noted.

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.

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.

The Greek word θνητός (i.e., *thnetos*) means 'mortal' or 'subject to death.' It is derived from the verb θνήσκω (i.e., *thnēskō*), which relates to dying. The term appears in various contexts, especially in the New Testament, where it describes human mortality (e.g., Romans 6:12, 1 Corinthians 15:53). It can also refer to things that are befitting mortals.

The Greek word οὗτος (i.e., *houtos*) is a demonstrative pronoun meaning 'this' or 'this one.' It is used to refer to something nearby or recently mentioned, often with a connotation of contempt in certain contexts. In the New Testament, it appears in various forms, such as in Matthew 3:17 and John 1:15, and can also serve to emphasize or clarify a subject.

The Greek word ἐνδύω means 'to put on' or 'to clothe,' derived from the roots for 'in' and 'to sink.' It covers a range of meanings from literally putting on clothes to metaphorically assuming characteristics or roles, as seen in various New Testament passages like Matthew 27:31 and Romans 13:14. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its usage.

Light; the sun, (Gen. 41:45, 50), the great seat of sun-worship, called also Bethshemesh (Jer. 43:13) and Aven (Ezek. 30:17), stood on the east bank of the Nile, a few miles north of Memphis, and near Cairo, in the north-east. The Vulgate and the LXX. Versions have “Heliopolis” (“city of the sun”) instead of On in Genesis and of Aven in Ezekiel. The “city of destruction” Isaiah speaks of (19:18, marg. “of Heres;” Heb. ‘Ir-ha-heres, which some MSS. read Ir-ha-heres, i.e., “city of the sun”) may be the name given to On, the prophecy being that the time will come when that city which was known as the “city of the sun-god” shall become the “city of destruction” of the sun-god, i.e., when idolatry shall cease, and the worship…
(abode or city of the sun), a town of lower Egypt, called BETH-SHEMESH in (Jeremiah 43:13) On is better known under its Greek name Heliopolis. It was situated on the east side of the Pelusiac branch of the Nile, just below the point of the Delta, and about twenty miles northeast of Memphis. The chief object of worship at Heliopolis was the sun, whose temple, described by Strabo, is now only represented by the single beautiful obelisk, of red granite so feet 2 inches high above the pedestal which has stood for more than 4000 years, having been erected by Usirtesen, the second king of the twelfth dynasty. Heliopolis was anciently famous for its learning, and Eudoxus and Plato studied under its priests. The first mention of this place in the Bible is in the history of Joseph, to whom we read Pharaoh gave "to wife Asenath the daughter…

The Greek word ἀθανασία (i.e., *athanasia*) means 'immortality' and is derived from a compound of a negative particle and the word for death. It appears in the New Testament in 1 Corinthians 15:53-54 and 1 Timothy 6:16, where it refers to the state of being deathless. The lexicons note its use in various ancient texts, including references to an elixir in later literature.

Immortality
Perpetuity of existence. The doctrine of immortality is taught in the Old Testament. It is plainly implied in the writings of Moses (Gen. 5:22, 24; 25:8; 37:35; 47:9; 49:29, comp. Heb. 11:13-16; Ex. 3:6, comp. Matt. 22:23). It is more clearly and fully taught in the later books (Isa. 14:9; Ps. 17:15; 49:15; 73:24). It was thus a doctrine obviously well known to the Jews.
With the full revelation of the gospel this doctrine was “brought to light” (2 Tim. 1:10; 1 Cor. 15;
In God, is underived and absolute: "who only hath immorality." In creatures, it is dependent upon the will of God. The immortality of the soul is argued from its boundless desires and capacities, is unlimited improvement, its desert of future punishment or reward, etc. All arguments, however, are unsatisfying without the testimony of Scripture. Christ "hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel," 2Ti 1:10: the immortal blessedness of Christians, including the resurrection of the body, is by virtue of their union with Christ, Jos 14:15. The everlasting woe of the wicked, the punishment of their sins, runs parallel with the eternal life of the redeemed, Mt 25:46.
