Context of Matthew 22:33
31It is true that one day dead people will become alive again. You have read in the Bible about what God said to you: 32“I am the God of Abraham. I am the God of Isaac. And I am the God of Jacob.” God is not the God of people who are dead. He is the God of people who are alive.’ The crowd heard this. They were very surprised about what Jesus was teaching. 34The Pharisees heard that Jesus had said these things to the Sadducees. Now the Sadducees could not say anything more to him. So the Pharisees met together. They decided what they would say to Jesus. 35One of the Pharisees had studied God's Law very well. He asked Jesus a question to see how he would answer.

- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 33The multitude were astonished at his doctrine - God uses the infidelity of some for the edification of others.
