54 But when this 15:54 Lit corruptibleperishable puts on 15:54 Lit incorruptionthe imperishable, and this mortal puts on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written: "Death has been swallowed up in victory. 55 Where, O Death, is your victory? Where, O Death, is your sting?"

54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
20 But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.

Cited from Isa. 25:8;[Heb. 2:14,15;Rev. 20:14;21:4]"Death is swallowed up in victory."
55 Hos. 13:14"O death, where is your victory?

54 Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die,15:54a Some manuscripts add and our mortal bodies have been transformed into immortal bodies. this Scripture will be fulfilled:
"Death is swallowed up in victory.15:54b Isa 25:8.
55 O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?15:55 Hos 13:14 (Greek version)."
20 But now Acts 2:24; 1 Pet. 1:3Christ is risen from the dead, and has become Acts 26:23; 1 Cor. 15:23; Rev. 1:5the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 26 (2 Tim. 1:10; Rev. 20:14; 21:4)The last enemy that will be destroyed is death.
54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: Is. 25:8; (Rev. 20:14)"Death is swallowed up in victory."

54 When this corruptible body is clothed with incorruptibility, and this mortal body is clothed with immortality, then the saying that is written will take place:
Death has been swallowed up 15:54 Mt 23:24in victory. 15:54 Is 25:8, 15:54 Is 25:8
55 Where, death, is your victory?
Where, death, is your sting? 15:55 Hs 13:14, 15:55 Hs 13:14
20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruits of them that sleep: 26 And the enemy death shall be destroyed last: For he hath put all things under his feet. And whereas he saith, 54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?
16-20 If corpses can’t be raised, then Christ wasn’t, because he was indeed dead. And if Christ weren’t raised, then all you’re doing is wandering about in the dark, as lost as ever. It’s even worse for those who died hoping in Christ and resurrection, because they’re already in their graves. If all we get out of Christ is a little inspiration for a few short years, we’re a pretty sorry lot. But the truth is that Christ has been raised up, the first in a long legacy of those who are going to leave the cemeteries.
21-28 There is a nice symmetry in this: Death initially came by a man, and resurrection from death came by a man. Everybody dies in Adam; everybody comes alive in Christ. But we have to wait our turn: Christ is first, then those with him at his Coming, the grand consummation when, after crushing the opposition, he hands over his kingdom to God the Father. He won’t let up until the last enemy is down—and the very last enemy is death! As the psalmist said, "He laid them low, one and all; he walked all over them." When Scripture says that "he walked all over them," it’s obvious that he couldn’t at the same time be walked on. When everything and everyone is finally under God’s rule, the Son will step down, taking his place with everyone else, showing that God’s rule is absolutely comprehensive—a perfect ending!
51-57 But let me tell you something wonderful, a mystery I’ll probably never fully understand. We’re not all going to die—but we are all going to be changed. You hear a blast to end all blasts from a trumpet, and in the time that you look up and blink your eyes—it’s over. On signal from that trumpet from heaven, the dead will be up and out of their graves, beyond the reach of death, never to die again. At the same moment and in the same way, we’ll all be changed. In the resurrection scheme of things, this has to happen: everything perishable taken off the shelves and replaced by the imperishable, this mortal replaced by the immortal. Then the saying will come true:
Death swallowed by triumphant Life!
Who got the last word, oh, Death?
Oh, Death, who’s afraid of you now?
It was sin that made death so frightening and law-code guilt that gave sin its leverage, its destructive power. But now in a single victorious stroke of Life, all three—sin, guilt, death—are gone, the gift of our Master, Jesus Christ. Thank God!
