# if the earthly dwelling that we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God
2017-06-21 20:45:09 +00:00

# longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling
The words "our heavenly dwelling" means the same thing as "building from God." Paul speaks of the new body that believers receive after they die as if it were both a building and a piece of clothing that a person can put on. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
