21And so the Lord God sent a deep sleep upon Adam. And when he was fast asleep, he took one of his ribs, and he completed it with flesh for it. 22And the Lord God built up the rib, which he took from Adam, into a woman.

35But someone may say, “How do the dead rise again?” or, “What type of body do they return with?” 36How foolish! What you sow cannot be brought back to life, unless it first dies. 37And what you sow is not the body that will be in the future, but a bare grain, such as of wheat, or of some other grain. 38For God gives it a body according to his will, and according to each seed’s proper body. 39Not all flesh is the same flesh. But one is indeed of men, another truly is of beasts, another is of birds, and another is of fish. 40Also, there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But while the one, certainly, has the glory of heaven, the other has the glory of earth.

25And behold, a certain expert in the law rose up, testing him and saying, “Teacher, what must I do to possess eternal life?” 26But he said to him: “What is written in the law? How do you read it?” 27In response, he said: “You shall love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from all your strength, and from all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” 28And he said to him: “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.” 29But since he wanted to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30Then Jesus, taking this up, said: “A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he happened upon robbers, who now also plundered him.
