Luke 20:27-33

27Then Jesus was approached by some Sadducees—religious leaders who say there is no resurrection from the dead.

28They posed this question: “Teacher, Moses gave us a law that if a man dies, leaving a wife but no children, his brother should marry the widow and have a child who will carry on the brother’s name.

29Well, suppose there were seven brothers. The oldest one married and then died without children.

30So the second brother married the widow, but he also died.

31Then the third brother married her. This continued with all seven of them, who died without children.

32Finally, the woman also died.

33So tell us, whose wife will she be in the resurrection? For all seven were married to her!”
