Luke 20:27-38

The Sadducees Ask About the Resurrection

27 ^aNow some of the ^bSadducees (who say that there is no resurrection) came to Him, 28 and they questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote for us that ^aif a man’s brother dies, having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should ¹marry the wife and raise up ²seed for his brother. 29 Now there were seven brothers; and the first married a wife and died childless, 30 and the second 31 and the third ¹married her; and in the same way, ²all seven ³died, leaving no children. 32 Finally the woman died also. 33 Therefore, this woman—in the resurrection—whose wife will she be? For all seven had her as a wife.”
34 And Jesus said to them, “The sons of ^athis age marry and are given in marriage, 35 but those who are considered worthy to attain to ^athat age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage. 36 For they cannot even die anymore, because they are like angels and are ^asons of God, being sons of the resurrection. 37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed in ^athe passage about the burning bush, where he calls the ¹Lord ^bthe God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. 38 ^aNow He is not the God of the dead but of the living; for ^ball live to Him.”
