Exegesis
The verse opens with two passive verbs, speiretai {σπείρεται | speí-re-tai} ‘is sown’ and egeiretai {ἐγείρεται | e-geí-re-tai} ‘is raised,’ forming an antithetical pair that underscores divine agency in the resurrection process.
In context — 1 Corinthians 15:44
A natural body is sown; a spiritual body is raised. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.
