Matthew Poole and continuators on 1 Corinthians 15:39

39 All shesh 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 .

Flesh is a kind of body, but it is of various degrees of dignity and excellency, in respect of the qualities of it: the flesh of men is of a differing excellency from the flesh of beasts; and there is a difference in natural Qualities betwixt the corporeal Substances of Beasts, and of Fishes, and Birds; yet they a[illegible: 1 letter]e all bodies, they are all flesh; our disti[illegible: 1 letter]ction betwixt Flesh and Fish, it is but according to our Idiom or propriety of speaking we read of the fl[illegible: 1 letter]sh of fish, Levit. 11.10, 11.
