Berean Standard Bible

“Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—”

1 Corinthians 15:51

Save as image

Study note

Near the end of the resurrection chapter, Paul reveals something he calls a mystery, a truth once hidden that God is now making known. He has explained that flesh and blood cannot enter God's kingdom as they are, and now addresses what happens to believers who are still alive.
