Mark 12:18-34

181Some SadduceesG4523 (whoG3748 sayG3004 that there is noG3361 resurrectionG386) cameG2064 to 2Jesus, and began questioningG1905 Him, sayingG3004, 19“TeacherG1320, MosesG3475 wroteG1125 for us that 3ifG1437 a man’sG5100 brotherG80 diesG599 and leavesG2641 behindG2641 a wifeG1135 and does not leaveG863 a childG5043, his brotherG80 is to 4marryG2983 the wifeG1135 and raiseG1817 upG1817 5childrenG4690 for his brotherG80. 20There were sevenG2033 brothersG80; and the firstG4413 tookG2983 a wifeG1135, and diedG599 leavingG863 noG3756 childrenG4690. 21The secondG1208 oneG1208 6marriedG2983 her, and diedG599 leavingG2641 behindG2641 noG3361 childrenG4690; and the thirdG5154 likewiseG5615; 22and so the sevenG2033 together leftG863 noG3756 childrenG4690. LastG2078 of allG3956 the womanG1135 alsoG2532 diedG599. 23In the resurrectionG386, whichG5101 one’sG846 wifeG1135 will she be? For each of the sevenG2033 had her as his wife.” 24JesusG2424 saidG5346 to them, “Is thisG3778 not the reasonG1223 you are mistakenG4105, that you do not 7understandG3609 the ScripturesG1124 norG3366 the powerG1411 of GodG2316? 25For whenG3752 they riseG450 from the deadG3498, they neitherG3777 marryG1060 norG3777 are givenG1061 inG1061 marriageG1061, but are likeG5613 angelsG32 in heavenG3772. 26But 8regardingG4012 theG3754 factG3754 thatG3754 the deadG3498 riseG1453, have you not readG314 in the bookG976 of MosesG3475, 9in the passage about the burning bushG942, howG4459 GodG2316 spokeG3004 to him, sayingG3004, ‘10I am the GodG2316 of AbrahamG11, the GodG2316 of IsaacG2464, and the GodG2316 of JacobG2384’? 2711He is not the GodG2316 12of the deadG3498, but of the livingG2198; you are greatlyG4183 mistakenG4105.”

2813OneG1520 of the scribesG1122 cameG4334 upG4334 and heardG191 them arguingG4802, and 14recognizingG3708 that He had answeredG611 them wellG2573, askedG1905 Him, “WhatG4169 commandmentG1785 is the 15foremostG4413 of allG3956?” 29JesusG2424 answeredG611, “The 16foremostG4413 is, ‘17HearG191, IsraelG2474! The LordG2962 is our GodG2316, the LordG2962 is oneG1520; 3018and you shall loveG25 the LordG2962 your GodG2316 with allG3650 your heartG2588, and with allG3650 your soulG5590, and with allG3650 your mindG1271, and with allG3650 your strengthG2479.’ 31The secondG1208 is thisG3778: ‘19You shall loveG25 your neighborG4139 as yourselfG4572.’ There is noG3756 otherG243 commandmentG1785 greaterG3173 than theseG3778.” 32And the scribeG1122 saidG3004 to Him, “WellG2573 said, TeacherG1320; You have trulyG1909G225 statedG3004 that 20He is OneG1520, and there is noG3756 otherG243 besidesG4133 Him; 3321and to loveG25 Him with allG3650 the heartG2588, and with allG3650 the understandingG4907, and with allG3650 the strengthG2479, and to loveG25 one’s neighborG4139 as oneselfG1438, 22is muchG4053 moreG4053 than allG3956 the burntG3646 offeringsG3646 and sacrificesG2378.” 34When JesusG2424 sawG3708 that he had answeredG611 intelligentlyG3562, He saidG3004 to him, “You are not farG3112 from the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.” 23And then, noG3762 oneG3762 daredG5111 anyG3765 longerG3765 to questionG1905 Him.
