Did Jehovah have a physical body?

While reading the scriptures it appears that there are several scriptures that make it sound like Jehovah has a physical body. It talks about most of his body parts, him wrestling, eating, making things, touching things, and all sorts of other things that make it sound like He had a physical body. The only way I can reconcile this is through MMP. Any other thoughts if Jehovah was embodied or not?

Same.
Also, the only way I can reconcile “progression between kingdoms “ is also through MMP.

In the Trinity, the Son could take on a human form; however, both the Holy Spirit and the Father are spirit and do not posses a body. The Scriptures teach that God is Spirit. Jesus said: "God is Spirit" (John 4:24). By nature, God is a Spirit-being.
However a person defines spirit, the definition does not include flesh and bones. This can be seen in an encounter Jesus had with His disciples after His resurrection:
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Handle me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have (Luke 24:39). God the Son became man when He was born to the virgin. So Jesus is both GOD and man.

I don’t believe in MMP, MMP is just the only way I could explain other ideas if those ideas happened to be true.
