This study is the first to examine the question of gender and sexuality in early Christian debates on the nature of the resurrection. It is concerned with how early Christians, from Greek and Latin fathers to the authors of the Nag Hammadi writings, interpreted the resurrected body to address questions about the nature of sexuality and sexual difference. In particular, it explores what early Christians thought it meant that resurrected bodies would not experience sexual desire and reproduction, and examines the instability of early Christian attempts to separate maleness and femaleness, located in resurrected "parts", from the gendered discourses of sexual desires, acts, and reproduction.
