1 Corinthians 15:47 in Context — 1 Corinthians 15

45 C’est pourquoi il est écrit: Le premier homme, Adam, devint une âme vivante. Le dernier Adam est devenu un esprit vivifiant.

46 Mais ce qui est spirituel n’est pas le premier, c’est ce qui est animal; ce qui est spirituel vient ensuite.

47 Le premier homme, tiré de la terre, est terrestre; le second homme est du ciel.

48 Tel est le terrestre, tels sont aussi les terrestres; et tel est le céleste, tels sont aussi les célestes.

49 Et de même que nous avons porté l’image du terrestre, nous porterons aussi l’image du céleste.
