20 But the fact is, Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep. 21 For since by a man death came, by a Man also came the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, so also in 15:22 I.e., the MessiahChrist all will be made alive.
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
20 But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. 22 For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.
20 But in fact 2 Tim. 2:8;1 Pet. 1:3Christ has been raised from the dead, ver. 23;See Acts 26:23the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For as See Rom. 5:12by a man came death, John 11:25;Rom. 6:23by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For [Rom. 5:14-18]as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
20 But in fact, Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died.
21 So you see, just as death came into the world through a man, now the resurrection from the dead has begun through another man. 22 Just as everyone dies because we all belong to Adam, everyone who belongs to Christ will be given new life.
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. 21 For Gen. 3:19; Ezek. 18:4; Rom. 5:12; 6:23; Heb. 9:27since by man came death, John 11:25by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall (John 5:28, 29)be made alive.
20 But as it is, Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits 15:20 Ex 23:19; Lv 2:12; Rm 8:23; Col 1:18 of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For since death 15:21 Mt 10:21; Jn 8:51; Php 3:10 came through a man, 15:21 Gn 3:1–7; Rm 5:12–14 the resurrection of the dead also comes through a man. 15:21 Mt 28:5–6; Mk 16:6; Lk 24:5–8,34; Jn 11:25; 20:9,15–1822 For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. 15:22 Rm 14:9
20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruits of them that sleep: 21 For by a man came death, and by a man the resurrection of the dead. 22 And as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all shall be made alive.
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!
