Exegesis

The coordinated distributive phrase kai hekástōi tôn spermatōn idíon sōma {καὶ ἑκάστῳ τῶν σπερμάτων ἴδιον σῶμα | kaí he-kás-tōi tôn sper-má-tōn í-di-on sô-ma} assigns “its own body” to each seed, with idíon {ἴδιον | í-di-on} preceding sōma to underscore individual distinction. Both clauses are rendered to preserve the balance between divine sovereignty and the resulting variety of bodily forms.
