In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul discusses the nature of the resurrection, and the types of “flesh”. This seems to indicate that again, the state of Adam before the fall may have been the “incorruptible” state of spiritual flesh.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Peter Says Satan Caused Adam to be Bound to Flesh
Thou didst enmesh the first man in concupiscence and bind him with thine old iniquity and with the chain of the flesh: thou art wholly the exceeding bitter fruit of the tree of bitterness, who sendest divers lusts upon men.
2:4 - Original “bright” nature
4 And because at that time they were filled with the grace of a bright nature, and they had not hearts turned towards earthly things.
4:1-2 - Adam sees that his flesh is altered
1 BUT Adam and Eve wept for having come out of the garden, their first abode.
2 And, indeed, when Adam looked at his flesh, that was altered, he wept bitterly, he and Eve, over what they had done. And they walked and went gently down into the Cave of Treasures.
4:8-10 - Adam comments on their fallen fleshly state
8 And Adam said to Eve, “Look at thine eyes, and at mine, which afore beheld angels in heaven, praising; and they, too, without ceasing.
9 “But now we do not see as we did: our eyes have become of flesh; they cannot see in like manner as they saw before.”
10 Adam said again to Eve, “What is our body to-day, compared to what it was in former days, when we dwelt in the garden?”
5:5 - Mary petitions God for forgiveness
5 “For I alone caused Thy servant to fall from the garden into this lost estate; from light into this darkness; and from the abode of joy into this prison.
6:5 - God tells Adam of his first estate
5 “Of your own free will have you transgressed through your desire for divinity, greatness, and an exalted state, such as I have; so that I deprived you of the bright nature in which you then were, and I made you come out of the garden to this land, rough and full of trouble.
10:5-6 - God discusses Adam's need for water
5 Then God said to Adam, “While thou wast under My command and wast a bright angel, thou knewest not this water.
6 “But after that thou hast transgressed My commandment, thou canst not do without water, wherein to wash thy body and make it grow; for it (thy body) is now like that of beasts, and is in want of water.”
13:6-7 - God tells Adam why he became flesh
6 “And on thee, O Adam, while in My garden and obedient to Me, did that bright light rest also.
7 “But when I heard of thy transgression, I deprived thee of that bright light. Yet, of My mercy, I did not turn thee into darkness, but I made thee thy body of flesh, over which I spread this skin, in order that it may bear cold and heat.
The Discourse on Abbaton says that Adam "became naked".
14:9 And Eve said unto him, "Come thou and eat. If God shall blame thee, I will take everything upon myself before God."
14:10 And in this way Adam took, and ate, and he became naked, and he knew immediately that he was naked; and he covered his nakedness with fig-leaves.
The sun and moon are reminders of our fallen state… Gospel of Bartholomew 4:5
This section is Mary, speaking to Peter, at the time while Jesus was on earth after His resurrection:
5 Mary saith: Thou art the image of Adam: was not he first formed and then Eve? Look upon the sun, that according to the likeness of Adam it is bright. and upon the moon, that because of the transgression of Eve it is full of clay. For God did place Adam in the east and Eve in the west, and appointed the lights that the sun should shine on the earth unto Adam in the east in his fiery chariots, and the moon in the west should give light unto Eve with a countenance like milk. And she defiled the commandment of the Lord. Therefore was the moon stained with clay (Lat. 2, is cloudy) and her light is not bright. Thou therefore, since thou art the likeness of Adam, oughtest to ask him: but in me was he contained that I might recover the strength of the female.
Seeing Adam in Hades, Bartholomew is struck at his "great stature".
1:21 Bartholomew saith unto him: I saw thee again, hanging upon the cross, and all the dead arising and worshipping thee, and going up again into their sepulchres. Tell me, Lord, who was he whom the angels bare up in their hands, even that man that was very great of stature? And what spakest thou unto him that he sighed so sore?
1:22 Jesus answered and said unto him: It was Adam the first-formed, for whose sake I came down from heaven upon earth. And I said unto him: I was hung upon the cross for thee and for thy children's sake. And he, when he heard it, groaned and said: So was thy good pleasure, O Lord.
1:23 Again Bartholomew said: Lord, I saw the angels ascending before Adam and singing praises.
Says Adam would die in 930 years.
15:14 Behold, thou shalt die from this day onwards, because thou art earth, and thou shalt return again to the earth.
15:15 Thou shalt live in the world a life of nine hundred and thirty years, and when death cometh upon thee thou shalt turn to the earth I again.
15:16 Thy soul shall abide in Amente (Hades),...
