2 Corinthians 5:4

For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

All Commentaries on 2 Corinthians 5:4 Go To 2 Corinthians 5

John Chrysostom

AD 407

We do not want to be delivered from the body but only from the corruption which is in it. Our body is a burden to us, not because it is a body but because it is corruptible and liable to suffering. But when the new life comes, it will take away this corruption— the corruption, I say, not the body itself.
