Sadducees » Reject the doctrine of the resurrection
And the second received her and died, and he left no seed; and the third likewise. And the seven received her and left no seed. Last of all the woman also died. Then in the resurrection, when they may rise, of which one of them shall she be the wife? for the seven had her a wife. And Jesus responding, said to them; Therefore do you not err, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God? For when they may rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage; but they are as angels in the heavens. But concerning the dead, that they are raised, have you not read in the book of Moses at the Bush, how God spoke to him saying; I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You do err much.
And the second and the third received her, and likewise also the seven; they left no children and died. Last of all the woman also died. Therefore in the resurrection of which one of them is she the wife? for the seven had her a wife. And responding Jesus said to them, The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage, but those counted worthy to attain that age and the resurrection, which is from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; for they are not able yet to die; for they are like the angels, and sons of God, being sons of the resurrection. But that the dead are raised, Moses also mentioned at the Bush, when he says; The Lord, 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; for all live unto Him. And certain of the scribes responding said; Teacher, you spoke beautifully. And they no longer dared to ask Him anything.
Likewise also, the second, and third, even unto seven. And last of all the woman also died. Therefore in the resurrection, of which one of the seven shall she be the wife? for they all had her. and Jesus responding said to them, You err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are as angels of God in heaven: concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. And the multitudes hearing, were delighted with His teaching. And the Pharisees, hearing that He silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.

Go, and standing in the temple, speak to the people all the words of this life. And hearing, they came into the temple at daydawn, and were teaching. And the high priest coming and those with him, called together the sanhedrim and all the eldership of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to bring them. And the officers arriving found them not in the prison; and having returned, reported, saying; We found the prison closed with all safety, and the guards standing at the doors, and having opened, we found no one within. And when the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were at a loss concerning them, what this might be. And a certain one coming announced to them, Behold, the men whom you placed in the prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people. Then the captain along with the officers, having gone away, led them, not with violence, for they feared the people lest they might be stoned. And leading them, they placed them in the council, and the chief priests asked them, saying, With commandment we commanded you not to teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching; and you are determined to bring upon us the blood of this man. But Peter and the apostles responding said, It behooves us to obey God rather than men. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you have slain, hanging him on the wood; Him hath God exalted at His own right hand, a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel. And we are witnesses of these words, and the Holy Ghost, whom God has given to those who obey him. And hearing, they were cut through and were minded to kill them.
