Exegesis
pneuma zōopoioún {πνεῦμα ζῳοποιοῦν | pneûma zōopoioún} 'a life-giving spirit.' The present participles zōsan and zōopoioún serve adjectivally, emphasizing the first Adam’s passive receipt of life and the last Adam’s active impartation, creating a typological contrast grounded in Genesis 2:7 LXX.
Root and etymology

In context — 1 Corinthians 15:45
