What does it mean that Jesus has a spiritual body after His resurrection?

Answered in 1 source

A spiritual body means that Jesus' resurrected body is transformed and eternal, distinct from the natural body.

After His resurrection, Jesus is described as having a spiritual body, which indicates a transformation from the natural body to one that is eternal and incorruptible. In 1 Corinthians 15:44, Paul explains that our bodies are sown in corruption but raised in incorruption. This spiritual body is characterized by its immortality and is free from the limitations of the physical world. While the full nature of a spiritual body remains a mystery, it assures believers that they too will be raised in a similar manner, reflecting the hope of eternal life through Christ.
