Exegesis

The interrogative adverb pos {Πῶς | Pôs} marks the manner of the action in the first question, which centers on the passive verb egeirontai hoi nekroi {ἐγείρονται οἱ νεκροί | egeírontai hoî nekrói} “be raised the dead,” emphasizing divine agency in resurrection.

In context1 Corinthians 15:35

But someone will object, “By what means will the dead be raised? And in what sort of body will they come?”
