  1 Corinthians 15:39–45

  **Show the text**

  39 All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.

  40 There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial.

  41 There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.

  42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown perishable; it is raised imperishable.

  43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.

  44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.

  45 So also it is written, “The first man, Adam, became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

- Gospel

  Luke 4:31–36

  **Show the text**

  31 He came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. He was teaching them on the Sabbath day,

  32 and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority.

  33 In the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,

  34 saying, “Ah! what have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!”

  35 Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” When the demon had thrown him down in the middle of them, he came out of him, having done him no harm.

  36 Amazement came on all, and they spoke together, one with another, saying, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
