1 Corinthians 15:21

_ _ by man ... by man — The first-fruits are of the same nature as the rest of the harvest; so Christ, the bringer of life, is of the same nature as the race of men to whom He brings it; just as Adam, the bringer of death, was of the same nature as the men on whom he brought it.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Corinthians 15:21

(12) For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.

(12) Another confirmation of the same conclusion: for Christ is to be considered as opposite to Adam, that as from one man Adam, sin came over all, so from one man Christ, life comes to all. That is to say, that all the faithful, who die because by nature they were born of Adam, so because in Christ they are made the children of God by grace, they are made alive and restored to life by him.
