for they all married her. Jesus answered them, don't you see you are in a mistake, by being unacquainted with the scriptures, as well as with the power of God?

but they, who shall be accounted worthy to obtain the resurrection to an eternal life, shall have no concern in marriage, as being immortal: for by the resurrection they will inherit a nature truely angelical and divine.

let not this surprize you: for the time is coming, when all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and they that have done good, shall rise to the possession of life; and they that have done evil, shall rise to their condemnation.

Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me shall live even though he were dead:

yet a little while, and the world shall see me no more: but ye shall see me: because I shall live again, and ye shall live also.

for David says concerning him, "I had the Lord always present before me, he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved. therefore did my heart rejoice, my tongue was glad: and my body shall rest in hope. read more. because thou wilt not leave my soul in the grave, nor wilt thou give thine holy one a prey to corruption. thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy by thy presence." men and brethren, let me with assurance tell you of the patriarch David, who died and was buried here, his sepulchre being with us to this day: that, as he was a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him, to place the fruit of his loins upon his throne: foreseeing this, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ, when he said, "that his soul was not lest in the grave, neither did his body undergo corruption."'

and now I stand arraign'd for expecting the accomplishment of the divine promise made to our fathers, which our twelve tribes by their continual services, night and day, hope themselves to obtain: yet for that hope, king Agrippa, do the Jews now accuse me. read more. you may think it something incredible that God should raise the dead:

but every one in proper order: Christ has the precedence, next they who were Christians shall rise at his advent.

but every one in proper order: Christ has the precedence, next they who were Christians shall rise at his advent.

it is sown an animal body, it will rise a spiritual body. there is an animal body, and there is a spiritual body. and so it is written, the first man Adam was made an animating soul, the last Adam was made a vivifying spirit.

always bearing about in my body the marks of sufferings like those of Jesus, so that Jesus might be plainly prov'd to be alive by the sufferings of my body.

it is he, that will change our vile body into a like form with his glorious body, by displaying that power which is able to subdue all things unto himself.

Christ is your life, and when he shall appear, then shall you also appear with him in glory.

Now may the God of peace make you intirely holy: may every part of you, your spirit, soul, and body be preserved irreprovable at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For the divine savour has display'd its salutary effects to all mankind: teaching us to renounce impiety and worldly passions, and to practise temperance, justice and piety in this present world;

'Twas by faith that he who was named Abraham, showed his obedience in travelling to a foreign country, which he was afterwards to inherit; and began his journey without knowing where he was going. 'twas by faith that he sojourned in a land that was promised, as in a strange country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who were equally entitled to the same promise. read more. for he had in view the city, whose foundations are sure, the architect and founder being God. 'Twas likewise through faith that Sara, though barren, received the power of becoming pregnant, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. so that even a single person whose vigour was gone, gave rise to a posterity as numerous as the stars of the sky, or the sands on the sea-shore, which cannot be numbred. These all died in faith, without receiving what was promised, having only a distant view of what they eagerly expected, professing to live as strangers and pilgrims in the land. for they. that make such a declaration, show plainly that they seek some other country. and truly, if that had been in their view, they might have had an opportunity of returning to the place from whence they came. they desired therefore a better, that is, an heavenly country: so that God is very justly stiled their God: for he had appointed a city for them.

the sea gave up the dead which were in it; death and the grave delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every one according to their works.

he that is unjust, let him be unjust still: he that is filthy, let him be filthy still: he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

If your right eye insnare you, it is better to pull it out, and to suffer the loss of that single part, than that thy whole body should be cast into Gehenna.

and I declare unto you, that many shall come from the east and from the west, and shall sit at table with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the heavenly kingdom.

fear not those who can only kill the body, but cannot hurt the soul: rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

About that time the Sadducees, who say there is no future life, came and propos'd this question, master, said they, by the law of Moses, in case a man die without children, his brother is oblig'd to marry his wife, in order to perpetuate his brother's name. read more. now there happen'd among us seven brothers, the first married but died without issue, leaving his wife to his brother: the same happen'd to the second, and the third, and so on to the seventh. last of all the woman died too: now if there be another life after this, whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all married her. Jesus answered them, you are mistaken, for want of a true notion of the scriptures, and of the divine power. for in the other life after this, there will be no such thing as marriage; but they will be as the angels of God in heaven.

for in the other life after this, there will be no such thing as marriage; but they will be as the angels of God in heaven. now as to the state of life after death, have ye not read that expression of God himself, read more. " I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?" God is not a benefactor to the dead, but to the living.

but the Pharisees hearing that he had dumb-founded the Sadducees, they met together in council.

and he shall send his messengers, who with the shrill sound of a trumpet, shall gather together his select from the four winds, from one end of the heaven to the other.

now there had been a great earthquake; for an angel of the lord descending from heaven, was come, and had rolled away the stone from the door, and was sitting upon it.

and when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

Then the Saducees, who deny the resurrection, came and asked him, saying, master, Moses has left it us in writing, that if a man dies, and leaves his wife without any children, his brother should marry his widow, in order to perpetuate his name. read more. now there were seven brothers: the first married a wife and died, leaving her without any children. the second married her, and he died too without leaving her any children: the third did the same. so that all the seven married her, but left no children. last of all she died. at the time therefore of the resurrection, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all married her. Jesus answered them, don't you see you are in a mistake, by being unacquainted with the scriptures, as well as with the power of God? for when they shall rise from the dead, they neither will marry, nor be given in marriage, but be immortal like the angels in heaven.

for when they shall rise from the dead, they neither will marry, nor be given in marriage, but be immortal like the angels in heaven.

for when they shall rise from the dead, they neither will marry, nor be given in marriage, but be immortal like the angels in heaven. and as for the dead, that they will actually rise, have you not read in the book of Moses those words, which God pronounc'd out of the bush to him, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?" read more. he is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: and therefore you greatly mistake the meaning. One of the Scribes, that had heard their dispute, observing the propriety of his answers, propos'd this question to him, which is the principal commandment of all?

then will he send his angels, and gather his elect from the four winds, from the remotest part of the earth, to the remotest part of heaven.

yet some shall come from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south, and shall be entertain'd in the kingdom of God.

and you shall be happy in not receiving a requital: for you shall be recompenc'd at the resurrection of the just.

and you shall be happy in not receiving a requital: for you shall be recompenc'd at the resurrection of the just.

Afterwards some of the Pharisees, who deny there is any resurrection, accosted him with this question, master, said they, Moses left it in writing, if any man has a brother, who dies in marriage without leaving children, he is obliged to take the widow, to perpetuate his brother's line. read more. now there were seven brothers, the first of which marry'd, and died without children. the second after marrying the widow, died likewise without children. then the third took her, and so she was married to all seven, who all died without leaving any children. at last the woman died too. at the resurrection therefore, to which of them will she be wife? for she had been married to all the seven. Jesus answered, in this life men and women marry. but they, who shall be accounted worthy to obtain the resurrection to an eternal life, shall have no concern in marriage, as being immortal:

but they, who shall be accounted worthy to obtain the resurrection to an eternal life, shall have no concern in marriage, as being immortal: for by the resurrection they will inherit a nature truely angelical and divine.

for by the resurrection they will inherit a nature truely angelical and divine.

for by the resurrection they will inherit a nature truely angelical and divine. now that the dead are raised, may be inferr'd from Moses's relation concerning the bush, where he stiles the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. read more. for he is not the God of the dead, but of the living. they are all then alive with respect to him.

for he is not the God of the dead, but of the living. they are all then alive with respect to him. which some of the Scribes approving, said to him, master, what you maintain is very just:

now while they were conferring and debating together, Jesus himself join'd them and walk'd along with them. but their eyes were affected so as not to discern who he was.

the Lord is actually risen, and hath appeared to Simon.

but as they were diffident of so joyful an event, and still in amaze, he said to them, have you any thing here to eat?

the Life was produc'd in him, and the Life was the Light of men.

he that believeth on the son, hath a right to everlasting life: and he that disobeys the son, shall not enjoy life; but be expos'd to divine wrath.

for as the father raiseth up the dead, and restores them to life: even so the son gives life to whom he will.

for as the father raiseth up the dead, and restores them to life: even so the son gives life to whom he will.

for as the father raiseth up the dead, and restores them to life: even so the son gives life to whom he will.

for as the father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the son, to have life in himself;

I say, is the will of him that sent me, that every one who observes the son, and believeth on him, should have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

I say, is the will of him that sent me, that every one who observes the son, and believeth on him, should have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Martha said to him, I know that he shall rise again at the resurrection of the last day.

and no man living that believeth in me, shall ever die.

he that rejecteth me, and does not embrace my doctrine, hath one that condemns him: the doctrine that I have delivered, that shall condemn him in the last day.

for thou hast given him power over all men, that he might give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

having thus said, she turned about, and saw Jesus standing, but knew not that it was Jesus.

The same day at evening, being the first day of the week, the doors of the house where the disciples were, being shut, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, peace be with you. and when he had so said, he show'd them his hands and his side. the disciples were therefore extremely glad when they saw it was the Lord.

the other disciples therefore said to him, we have seen the Lord. but he said to them, except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

then said he to Thomas, reach hither thy finger, and examine my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

as soon as it was morning, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

Being therefore in his presence, they asked him, saying, Lord, is this the time when you will restore again the kingdom to Israel?

from his baptism by John, to the day of his assumption, we should chuse one to be a witness with us of his resurrection.

having delivered him from the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be overpower'd by it.

'tis this Jesus whom God hath raised up, of which we all are witnesses. therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the father the promise of the holy spirit, he has diffused that spirit, the effects of which ye now see and hear.

but killed the prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.

and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you entirely recover'd.

Great was the power by which the apostles attested the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and they were all greatly favoured by the people.

go, stand in the temple, and declare to the people, the whole doctrine of life.

the God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew, and hanged on a tree. him hath God rais'd by his power to be the author of salvation, by giving repentance to Israel, and the remission of their sins. read more. and we are his witnesses in what we say, and so is the holy spirit, whom God hath given to those that obey him.

but God raised him up the third day, and shewed him openly, not to all the people, but to those witnesses, which God had before chosen: to us, I say, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.

to you therefore we declare, that the promise which God had made to the fathers, he has now perform'd to us, who are their children, by his having raised up Jesus again.

are moved, and do exist: even as some of your own poets have said, WE ARE EVEN HIS OFFSPRING.

When they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some made it a matter of ridicule: others said, we will hear you again upon this subject;

After this Paul left Athens and arriv'd at Corinth:

But as Paul knew that one part of the Sanhedrim were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out, my brethren, "I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee, and I am now prosecuted for believing the resurrection of the dead."

I have the same expectations from the DEITY, which they themselves entertain, that of the resurrection both of the just and of the unjust.

and now I stand arraign'd for expecting the accomplishment of the divine promise made to our fathers, which our twelve tribes by their continual services, night and day, hope themselves to obtain: yet for that hope, king Agrippa, do the Jews now accuse me. read more. you may think it something incredible that God should raise the dead:

but as to his holy spirit miraculously declared to be the son of God, by his resurrection from the dead:

however by your impenitence, and the insensibility of your heart, you treasure up for yourself wrath against the day of wrath, and of the revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

for if they only who are of the law have right of possession, faith is made useless, and the promise becomes of no effect.

don't you know that when we were all baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, we were plunged into a state figurative of his death.

for if we resembled him with regard to death, certainly we shall likewise do so with regard to his resurrection:

for if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Christ from the dead, shall likewise restore your mortal bodies to life, by his spirit that dwelleth in you.

for if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Christ from the dead, shall likewise restore your mortal bodies to life, by his spirit that dwelleth in you.

who were not, by their own choice, expos'd to this uncertain state, but by virtue of him, who subjected them thereto:

I acquainted you chiefly with what I received myself, that Christ died for our sins, as the scriptures foretold:

for if the dead are not raised, then was not Christ raised:

if our expectations as christians all terminate in this life, we of all men are most to be pitied.

for as by Adam all die, even so by Christ shall all be restored to life.

for as by Adam all die, even so by Christ shall all be restored to life.

But some will say, how will the dead be raised? with what kind of body will they appear? foolish as you are, the grain you sow, is not revived except it die. read more. and whatever you sow, you don't sow that body which shall afterwards appear, but only the bare grain of wheat, for instance, or of some other grain. but God gives it such a body, as he thinks fit, to every seed its peculiar body. All flesh is not of the same kind: but there is one kind that belongs to men, another to beasts, another to fishes, and another to birds. there are celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is of one kind, and the glory of the terrestrial of another. the glory of the sun is of one kind, the glory of the moon of another, and the glory of the stars still different; nay, one star differs from another star in glory. such will be the resurrection of the dead: the body is sown corruptible, it will be raised incorruptible.

it is sown an animal body, it will rise a spiritual body. there is an animal body, and there is a spiritual body.

for as many of you as have been baptized into christianity, have been invested as christians.

which he exerted in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at the head of his heavenly kingdom,

for he hath made us a-new, and form'd us by Christ Jesus to do good works, for which God had before prepared us, that we might live in them.

Therefore now, you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow-citizens with the saints, and domesticks of God's family,

For this cause, ever since we heard of it, we incessantly pray for you, requesting that you may be endued with respect to the knowledge of his will, with all wisdom and spiritual discernment:

which were buried (as Christ was) in your baptism, by virtue of which you rise (as he did) to a new life, through a belief of that divine power, which raised him from the dead.

and to expect his son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, who delivers us from impending ruin.

for the Lord himself will descend from heaven, and by the voice of the archangel, with the trumpet of God, resound the summons: they who died christians shall rise first:

the Lord shall punish them with everlasting destruction, when he shall appear in the glory of his power,

they have deserted the faith themselves, and debauch'd the faith of others, by maintaining, "the resurrection is already past."

Therefore omitting for the present the principles of the christian doctrine, we shall proceed to something more sublime, without mentioning those fundamental articles of repentance from destructive vices, and of divine faith:

Blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy has regenerated us, and given us by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the expectation of immortal life,

it is by him that you believe in God, who has raised him from the dead, and invested him with glory, that your faith and your hope might be in God.

thus baptism, which corresponds to the deluge, does now save us, not as it is a cleansing from external filth, but as it is an engagement to lead a divine life, from the belief of the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

but the rest of the dead shall not live again until the thousand years are finished. this is the first resurrection.

and I saw the dead, small and great, stand before the throne; the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out. of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

for when they shall rise from the dead, they neither will marry, nor be given in marriage, but be immortal like the angels in heaven. and as for the dead, that they will actually rise, have you not read in the book of Moses those words, which God pronounc'd out of the bush to him, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?" read more. he is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: and therefore you greatly mistake the meaning.

for if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Christ from the dead, shall likewise restore your mortal bodies to life, by his spirit that dwelleth in you.

Now if it has been declared, that Christ rose from the dead, how comes it, that some among you assert, "there is no resurrection of the dead?"

but every one in proper order: Christ has the precedence, next they who were Christians shall rise at his advent. and then will be the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God even the father; after having abolished all rule, and all authority, and power.

for the Lord himself will descend from heaven, and by the voice of the archangel, with the trumpet of God, resound the summons: they who died christians shall rise first:

they have deserted the faith themselves, and debauch'd the faith of others, by maintaining, "the resurrection is already past."

but the rest of the dead shall not live again until the thousand years are finished. this is the first resurrection. happy and holy are they that have part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God, and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

About that time the Sadducees, who say there is no future life, came and propos'd this question,

Then the Saducees, who deny the resurrection, came and asked him,

master, said they, Moses left it in writing, if any man has a brother, who dies in marriage without leaving children, he is obliged to take the widow, to perpetuate his brother's line.

let not this surprize you: for the time is coming, when all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and they that have done good, shall rise to the possession of life; and they that have done evil, shall rise to their condemnation.

Jesus said to her, your brother shall rise again. Martha said to him, I know that he shall rise again at the resurrection of the last day.

But as Paul knew that one part of the Sanhedrim were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out, my brethren, "I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee, and I am now prosecuted for believing the resurrection of the dead."

for the Sadducees maintain, there is neither resurrection, nor angel, or spirit, whereas the Pharisees acknowledge both: the clamour was great,

for if we resembled him with regard to death, certainly we shall likewise do so with regard to his resurrection:

women recovered their children, tho' dead, by their being raised to life again: some expired under torments, refusing to be delivered; that they might obtain a better deliverance at the resurrection.
