A spirit does not have flesh and BONES as you see that I have

[tonychanyt]

Why didn't Jesus say 'flesh and blood' in Lk 24:39?

Mat 16:

17 Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.

The Greek idiom 'flesh and blood' referred to the biological human being as opposed to God.

Eph 6:

12 We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Tools.

'Flesh and blood' was contrasted with spiritual beings.

He 2:

14 Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, [Jesus] himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

Jesus took on flesh and blood as a biological human being.

1 Corinthians 15:

50 I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

The perishable flesh and blood cannot inherit the coming kingdom of God.

After the resurrection, Jesus said in Lk 24:

39 "See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have."

Jesus didn't say that he had flesh and blood like all biological human beings. If Jesus had said, "For a spirit does not have flesh and blood as you see that I have," it would have been a bit confusing because his resurrected body was not like the usual biological bodies. His resurrected body was imperishable. He wanted to make a distinction between his temporal body before the resurrection and his eternal body after the resurrection.
