Luke 20:27-40

27And some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is any resurrection, coming up [to him],

28demanded of him saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one's brother, who has a wife, die, and he die childless, his brother shall take the wife and raise up seed to his brother.

29There were then seven brethren: and the first, having taken a wife, died childless;

30and the second [took the woman, and he died childless];

31and the third took her: and in like manner also the seven left no children and died;

32and last of all the woman also died.

33In the resurrection therefore of which of them does she become wife, for the seven had her as wife?

34And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage,

35but they who are counted worthy to have part in that world, and the resurrection from among [the] dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;

36for neither can they die any more, for they are equal to angels, and are sons of 1God, being sons of the resurrection.

37But that the dead rise, even Moses shewed in [the section of] the bush, when he called [the] Lord the 2God of Abraham and the 3God of Isaac and the 4God of Jacob;

38but he is not 5God of [the] dead but of [the] living; for all live for him.

39And some of the scribes answering said, Teacher, thou hast well spoken.

40For they did not dare any more to ask him anything.
