    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
    • 5:3

      we will not be found naked: Paul knew that he and other anointed Christians who died prior to Christ’s presence would, for a time, be “naked,” or unclothed, in death. They would live neither a life in the flesh nor a life in the spirit but would be asleep in the Grave. However, if they had been faithful when they lived on earth, they would not remain “naked” in death. Rather, they were guaranteed a future resurrection; they would “put on” a spiritual body to make their “home with the Lord.”​—2Co 5:1-8; see study note on 2Co 5:4.
