Christ's dead body b4 resurrection

Everybody is correct about the Divinity of Christ remaining intact.  Otherwise, it could not be said that God died for our sins, and we would be left with nothing but heresy and damnation.

His Divinity is inseparable from His humanity.  The humanity of Christ is made of a human body and a human soul, just like all other men, for He was true man.  His human body is Divine and His human soul is Divine, as He is true God, even in His humanity.

His human soul, which is Divine, separated from His body, which also is Divine, at His death.  His Divine and human soul descended to the dead, while His Divine and human body remained in the sepulcher.

He then willed for His soul and body to be reunited, neither one having ever been any less God or man.

  So the whole body of Christ was God, even it's parts like hands, teeth, bones, and nails?

Maybe this gives a hint to the answer to your question:

Quote
The Fathers always explain that this physical union of the two natures does not mean the intermingling of the natures, nor any such union as would imply a change in God, but only such union as was necessary to explain the fact that one Divine Person had human nature as His own true nature together with His Divine nature.
