Jesus Christ » History of » Tested by the sadducees concerning the resurrection of the dead (in jerusalem)
On the same day the Sadducees came to him, who say, that there is no resurrection, and they put a question to him, saying, Master, Moses said, "If a man die having no children, his brother in right of affinity shall marry his wife, and raise up seed for his brother." Now there were with us seven brothers; and the first marrying, died, and had no offspring, and left his wife to his brother; read more.
likewise the second also; then the third; so on to the seven. Last of all the woman died also. In the resurrection therefore, whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her. Jesus then answering, said unto them, Ye are in an error, from not knowing the Scriptures, and the power of God. For at the resurrection, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. But with respect to the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read what was spoken to you of 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 when the multitude heard it, they were amazingly struck with his doctrine.
likewise the second also; then the third; so on to the seven. Last of all the woman died also. In the resurrection therefore, whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her. Jesus then answering, said unto them, Ye are in an error, from not knowing the Scriptures, and the power of God. For at the resurrection, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. But with respect to the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read what was spoken to you of 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 when the multitude heard it, they were amazingly struck with his doctrine.
And the Sadducees come to him, who say that there is no resurrection; and they put a question to him, saying, Master, Moses left it in writing for us, that if a man's brother die, and leave a wife, and leave no children; that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed for his brother. Now there were seven brothers; and the first took a wife, and dying left no issue: read more.
and the second took her, and died, and neither did he leave issue; and the third in like manner. And the seven had her, and left no issue. Last of all died also the wife. In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had the very same wife. And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, from not knowing the scriptures, and the power of God? For when they rise from the dead, they will neither marry, nor be given in marriage; but they are as the angels which are in heaven. But concerning the dead, that they do rise; have ye not read in the book of Moses, how God spake to him at the bush, saying, 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 the God of the living. Ye are therefore vastly erroneous.
and the second took her, and died, and neither did he leave issue; and the third in like manner. And the seven had her, and left no issue. Last of all died also the wife. In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had the very same wife. And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, from not knowing the scriptures, and the power of God? For when they rise from the dead, they will neither marry, nor be given in marriage; but they are as the angels which are in heaven. But concerning the dead, that they do rise; have ye not read in the book of Moses, how God spake to him at the bush, saying, 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 the God of the living. Ye are therefore vastly erroneous.
Then certain of the Sadducees, who contend that there is no resurrection, asked him, saying, Master, Moses wrote for us, If a man's brother die, having a wife, and he die childless, that his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed for his brother. Now there were seven brothers: and the first taking a wife, died childless. read more.
And the second taking the wife, he also died childless. Then the third took her; and also all the seven in like manner: and left no children, and died. And last of all died also the woman. In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife. And Jesus in reply said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: but they who are counted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection of the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: neither can they die any more: for they are like the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. Now that the dead are raised, even Moses intimated at the bush, when he called the Lord, "the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." Now God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live with him. Then some of the scribes addressing him said, Master, admirably hast thou spoken! And after that they durst not put another question to him.
And the second taking the wife, he also died childless. Then the third took her; and also all the seven in like manner: and left no children, and died. And last of all died also the woman. In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife. And Jesus in reply said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: but they who are counted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection of the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: neither can they die any more: for they are like the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. Now that the dead are raised, even Moses intimated at the bush, when he called the Lord, "the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." Now God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live with him. Then some of the scribes addressing him said, Master, admirably hast thou spoken! And after that they durst not put another question to him.
