And it was for this reason that the gods at that time contrived the love of sexual intercourse by constructing an animate creature of one kind in us men, and of another kind in women; and they made these severally in the following fashion. From the passage of egress for the drink, where it receives and joins in discharging the fluid which has come through the lungs beneath the kidneys into the bladder and has been compressed by the air, they bored a hole into the condensed marrow which comes from the head down by the neck and along the spine [91b] which marrow, in our previous account, we termed “seed.” And the marrow, inasmuch as it is animate and has been granted an outlet, has endowed the part where its outlet lies with a love for generating by implanting therein a lively desire for emission. Wherefore in men the nature of the genital organs is disobedient and self-willed, like a creature that is deaf to reason, and it attempts to dominate all because of its frenzied lusts. [91c] And in women again, owing to the same causes, whenever the matrix or womb, as it is called — which is an indwelling creature desirous of child-bearing — remains without fruit long beyond the due season, it is vexed and takes it ill; and by straying all ways through the body and blocking up the passages of the breath and preventing respiration it casts the body into the uttermost distress, and causes, moreover, all kinds of maladies; until the desire and love of the two sexes unite them. Then, culling as it were the fruit from trees, [91d] they sow upon the womb, as upon ploughed soil, animalcules that are invisible for smallness and unshapen; and these, again, they mold into shape and nourish to a great size within the body; after which they bring them forth into the light and thus complete the generation of the living creature.In this fashion, then, women and the whole female sex have come into existence.And the tribe of birds are derived by transformation, growing feathers in place of hair, from men who are harmless but light-minded — men, too, who, being students of the worlds above, suppose in their simplicity that the most solid proofs about such matters are obtained by the sense of sight. [91e] And the wild species of animal that goes on foot is derived from those men who have paid no attention at all to philosophy nor studied at all the nature of the heavens, because they ceased to make use of the revolutions within the head and followed the lead of those parts of the soul which are in the breast. Owing to these practices they have dragged their front limbs and their head down to the earth, and there planted them, because of their kinship therewith; and they have acquired elongated heads of every shape, according as their several revolutions have been distorted by disuse. |

But he, by reason of his love for mankind, did not reject the soul which came to him, but went forward to meet it, and showed to it his own nature as far as it was possible that he who was looking at it could see it. |

But when the fullness of the time came,God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law, 4.5. thathe might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive theadoption of sons. 4.6. And because you are sons, God sent out theSpirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, "Abba, Father!" 4.7. Soyou are no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heirof God through Christ. 4.8. However at that time, not knowing God, youwere in bondage to those who by nature are not gods. 4.9.

You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses; 2.14. having wiped out the handwriting in ordices that was against us, which was contrary to us: and he has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross; 2.15. having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it. 2.16.

Now I declare to you, brothers, the gospel which I preachedto you, which also you received, in which you also stand,,bywhich also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preachedto you -- unless you believed in vain.,For I delivered to youfirst of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sinsaccording to the Scriptures,,that he was buried, that he wasraised on the third day according to the Scriptures,,and that heappeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.,Then he appeared to overfive hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but somehave also fallen asleep.,Then he appeared to James, then to allthe apostles,,and last of all, as to the child born at the wrongtime, he appeared to me also.,For I am the least of theapostles, who is not worthy to be called an apostle, because Ipersecuted the assembly of God.,But by the grace of God I amwhat I am. His grace which was bestowed on me was not futile, but Iworked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which waswith me.,Whether then it is I or they, so we preach, and so youbelieved.,Now if Christ is preached, that he has been raised from thedead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of thedead?,But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hasChrist been raised.,If Christ has not been raised, then ourpreaching is in vain, and your faith also is in vain.,Yes, weare found false witnesses of God, because we testified about God thathe raised up Christ, whom he didn't raise up, if it is so that the deadare not raised.,For if the dead aren't raised, neither hasChrist been raised.,If Christ has not been raised, your faithis vain; you are still in your sins.,Then they also who arefallen asleep in Christ have perished.,If we have only hoped inChrist in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.,But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became thefirst fruits of those who are asleep.,For since death came byman, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.,For as inAdam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.,Buteach in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then those who areChrist's, at his coming.,Then the end comes, when he willdeliver up the Kingdom to God, even the Father; when he will haveabolished all rule and all authority and power.,For he mustreign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.,The lastenemy that will be abolished is death.,For, "He put all thingsin subjection under his feet." But when he says, "All things are put insubjection," it is evident that he is excepted who subjected all thingsto him.,When all things have been subjected to him, then theSon will also himself be subjected to him who subjected all things tohim, that God may be all in all.,Or else what will they do whoare baptized for the dead? If the dead aren't raised at all, why thenare they baptized for the dead?,Why do we also stand injeopardy every hour?,I affirm, by the boasting in you which Ihave in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.,If I fought withanimals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If thedead are not raised, then "let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.",Don't be deceived! "Evil companionships corrupt good morals.",Wake up righteously, and don't sin, for some have no knowledgeof God. I say this to your shame.,But someone will say, "Howare the dead raised?" and, "With what kind of body do they come?",You foolish one, that which you yourself sow is not made aliveunless it dies.,That which you sow, you don't sow the body thatwill be, but a bare grain, maybe of wheat, or of some other kind.,But God gives it a body even as it pleased him, and to eachseed a body of its own.,All flesh is not the same flesh, butthere is one flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish,and another of birds.,There are also celestial bodies, andterrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that ofthe terrestrial.,There is one glory of the sun, another gloryof the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs fromanother star in glory.,So also is the resurrection of the dead.It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption.,It issown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it israised in power.,It is sown a natural body; it is raised aspiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritualbody.,So also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a livingsoul." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.,However thatwhich is spiritual isn't first, but that which is natural, then thatwhich is spiritual.,The first man is of the earth, made ofdust. The second man is the Lord from heaven.,As is the onemade of dust, such are those who are also made of dust; and as is theheavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.,As we haveborne the image of those made of dust, let's also bear the image of theheavenly.,Now I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood can'tinherit the Kingdom of God; neither does corruption inheritincorruption.,Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but wewill all be changed,,in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will beraised incorruptible, and we will be changed.,For thiscorruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put onimmortality.,But when this corruptible will have put onincorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then whatis written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory.","Death, where is your sting?Hades, where is your victory?",The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.,But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our LordJesus Christ.,Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast,immovable, always abounding in the Lord's work, because you know thatyour labor is not in vain in the Lord. |

Although the whole world is arranged into offices of different kinds, its condition, nevertheless, is not to be supposed as one of internal discrepancies and discordances; but as our one body is provided with many members, and is held together by one soul, so I am of opinion that the whole world also ought to be regarded as some huge and immense animal, which is kept together by the power and reason of God as by one soul. This also, I think, is indicated in sacred Scripture by the declaration of the prophet, Do not I fill heaven and earth? Says the Lord; and again, The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; and by the Saviour's words, when He says that we are to swear neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool. To the same effect also are the words of Paul, in his address to the Athenians, when he says, In Him we live, and move, and have our being. For how do we live, and move, and have our being in God, except by His comprehending and holding together the whole world by His power? And how is heaven the throne of God, and the earth His footstool, as the Saviour Himself declares, save by His power filling all things both in heaven and earth, according to the Lord's own words? And that God, the Father of all things, fills and holds together the world with the fullness of His power, according to those passages which we have quoted, no one, I think, will have any difficulty in admitting. And now, since the course of the preceding discussion has shown that the different movements of rational beings, and their varying opinions, have brought about the diversity that is in the world, we must see whether it may not be appropriate that this world should have a termination like its beginning. For there is no doubt that its end must be sought amid much diversity and variety; which variety, being found to exist in the termination of the world, will again furnish ground and occasion for the diversities of the other world which is to succeed the present. |
