Exegesis
The second clause, linked by oude {οὐδὲ | oudè}, contrasts he phthora {ἡ φθορὰ | hē phtho-rá} “the corruption” with ten aphtharsian {τὴν ἀφθαρσίαν | tḕn aph-thar-sí-an} “the incorruption” as subject and object of kleronomei {κληρονομεῖ | klē-ro-no-meî}, heightening the antithesis between mortality and the eschatological imperishable realm.
In context — 1 Corinthians 15:50
I now affirm this, brothers: mortal flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God , nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
