body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

12 ¶ For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.

23 and those parts of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness;

24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour

B ⟨something more abundant⟩

to that part which lacked:
