Luke 20:21-44
21They questionedG1905 Him, sayingG3004, “TeacherG1320, we knowG3609 that You speakG3004 and teachG1321 correctlyG3723, and You 1are not partialG2983G4383 to any, but teachG1321 the wayG3598 of GodG2316 in truthG225. 22Is it 2lawfulG1832 for us 3to payG1325 taxesG5411 to CaesarG2541, orG2228 not?” 23But He detectedG2657 their trickeryG3834 and saidG3004 to them, 24“ShowG1166 Me a 4denariusG1220. WhoseG5101 5likenessG1504 and inscriptionG1923 does it haveG2192?” They saidG3004, “Caesar’sG2541.” 25And He saidG3004 to them, “ThenG5106 6renderG591 to CaesarG2541 the things that are Caesar’sG2541, and to GodG2316 the things that are God’sG2316.” 26And they were unableG3756G2480 to 78catchG1949 Him in a sayingG4487 in the presenceG1727 of the peopleG2992; and beingG2296 amazedG2296 at His answerG612, they becameG4601 silentG4601.
279NowG1161 there cameG4334 to Him someG5100 of the 10SadduceesG4523 (who sayG483 that there is noG3361 resurrectionG386), 28and they questionedG1905 Him, sayingG3004, “TeacherG1320, MosesG3475 wroteG1125 for us that 11ifG1437 a man’sG5100 brotherG80 diesG599, havingG2192 a wifeG1135, and he is childlessG815, his brotherG80 should 12marryG2983 the wifeG1135 and raiseG1817 up childrenG4690 to his brotherG80. 29NowG3767 there were sevenG2033 brothersG80; and the firstG4413 tookG2983 a wifeG1135 and diedG599 childlessG815; 30and the secondG1208 31and the thirdG5154 13marriedG2983 her; and in the sameG5615 wayG5615 14allG3588 sevenG2033 15diedG599, leavingG2641 noG3756 childrenG5043. 32FinallyG5306 the womanG1135 diedG599 alsoG2532. 33In the resurrectionG386 thereforeG3767, whichG5101 one’sG846 wifeG1135 will she be? For 16allG3588 sevenG2033 17hadG2192 married her.”
34JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “The sonsG5207 of 18thisG3778 ageG165 marryG1060 and are givenG1061 in marriageG1061, 35but thoseG3588 who are consideredG2661 worthyG2661 to attainG5177 to 19that ageG165 and the resurrectionG386 from the deadG3498, neitherG3777 marryG1060 norG3777 are givenG1061 in marriageG1061; 36for they cannotG1410G3761 evenG3761 dieG599 anymoreG2089, becauseG1063 they are likeG2465 angelsG2465, and are 20sonsG5207 of GodG2316, beingG1510 sonsG5207 of the resurrectionG386. 37But that the deadG3498 are raisedG1453, evenG2532 MosesG3475 showedG3377, in 21the passage about the burning bushG942, whereG5613 he callsG3004 the LordG2962 22the GodG2316 of AbrahamG11, and the GodG2316 of IsaacG2464, and the GodG2316 of JacobG2384. 3823NowG1161 He is not the GodG2316 of the deadG3498 but of the livingG2198; for 24allG3956 liveG2198 to Him.” 39SomeG5100 of the scribesG1122 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “TeacherG1320, You have spokenG3004 wellG2573.” 40For 25they did not haveG5111 courageG5111 to questionG1905 Him anyG3765 longerG3765 about anythingG3762.
4126ThenG2532 He saidG3004 to them, “HowG4459 is it that they sayG3004 27the ChristG5547 is 28David’sG1160 sonG5207? 42For DavidG1160 himselfG846 saysG3004 in the bookG976 of PsalmsG5568, ‘29The LordG2962 saidG3004 to my LordG2962, “SitG2521 at My rightG1188 handG1188,4330UntilG2193 I makeG5087 Your enemiesG2190 a footstoolG5286 for Your feetG4228.”’ 44ThereforeG3767 DavidG1160 callsG2564 Him ‘LordG2962,’ and howG4459 is He his sonG5207?”
