The Resurrection of the Body and the Life Everlasting1
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 February 2009
Extract
The golden ripple on the wall came back again, and nothing else stirred in the room. The old, old fashion! The fashion that came in with our first garments, and will last unchanged until our race has run its course, and the wide firmament is rolled up like a scroll. The old, old fashion—Death!

page 134 note 1 See P. Tillich, The Protestant Era, p. 106. This, his latest volume, is a profound commentary on what he calls elsewhere “corporal being as the end of the ways of God”. See pp. 131 and 167 with their insistence that the “soul” as the vital and emotional ground from which the self-conscious personality arises, includes the “body”. “The body is the immediate expression and the form of the self-realisation of the soul.” Indeed, this corresponds to the interrelation of the personality with things and community.
page 134 note 2 That it sometimes came erroneously to mean resurrectio carnis, especially at certain epochs of Christian history, is undeniable. See Kirsopp Lake, The Earlier Epistles ofS. Paul, on I Corinthians 6.1a, 10.8 and 15.
page 136 note 1 cf. Calvin, Inst. 2.16.10: “…diros in anima cruciatus damnati ac perditihominis pertulerit,” i.e. “He endured in His soul the dreadful torments of a condemned and lost man.”
