Matthew 22:15-33

15Then the Pharisees went and plotted how they might trap Him with a word.

16And they sent to Him some of their disciples, along with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are honest and teach the way of God in truth. And what others think doesn’t concern You, for You do not look at men’s appearance.

17Tell us therefore, what do You think? Is it permitted to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”

18But Yeshua, knowing their wickedness, said, “Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites?

19Show Me the tax money.” So they brought Him a denarius.

20And He said to them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”

21“Caesar’s,” they said to Him. Then He said to them, “Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”

22And hearing this, they were amazed. So they left Him and went away.

23On that day, Sadducees (who say there is no resurrection) came to Yeshua and questioned Him, saying,

24“Teacher, Moses said, ‘If someone dies having no children, his brother as next of kin shall marry his widow and father children for his brother.’

25Now there were seven brothers among us. The first married and died; and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother.

26In the same way also the second, and the third, down to the seventh.

27Last of all, the woman died.

28So in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had married her.”

29But answering, Yeshua said to them, “You’ve gone astray, because you don’t understand the Scriptures or the power of God.

30For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

31But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven’t you read what was spoken to you by God, saying,

32‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living!”

33When the crowds heard this, they were astounded at His teaching.
