KAI ho SPEI-reis ou to SÔ-ma to ge-nê-SO-me-non SPEI-reis al-LA gym-NON KOK-kon ei TY-khoi SI-tou Ê TI-nos TÔN loi-PÔN
Exegesis
The negation ou before speireis in ou speireis to sōma to genesomenon {οὐ σπείρεις τὸ σῶμα τὸ γενησόμενον | ou speí-reis tò sô-ma tò ge-nē-só-me-non} denies that the sowing pertains to the future, fully formed body.
The article-plus-participle construction in to sōma to genesomenon {τὸ σῶμα τὸ γενησόμενον | tò sô-ma tò ge-nē-só-me-non} defines “the body about to be,” marking temporal distinction.
Root and etymology
chriōchi–rho–iota–omega
“to anoint, consecrate”
In context — 1 Corinthians 15:37
And what you sow is not the body that will be, but a bare grain —perhaps of wheat, or of some other kind.
