Paul tells us that the first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven.
There are two men in all of history. The first man was a man of dust – and he returned to dust. The second man is from heaven – and he returned to heaven.
Paul says that there is a pattern to history – a purpose to the structure of history. History moves from the man from the earth to the man from heaven. The first Adam became a living being; the last Adam became a life-giving Spirit.
It is fitting that we come to Genesis 5 on Resurrection Sunday, because Genesis 5 is all about the necessity of the resurrection.
