Matthew:22:23-33

*
On that day Sadducees (
those who say that there is no resurrection )
came to him .
They asked him ,
*
saying , "
Teacher ,
Moses said , '
If a man dies ,
having no children ,
his brother shall marry his wife ,
and raise up seed for his brother .'
*
Now there were with us seven brothers .
The first married and died ,
and having no seed left his wife to his brother .
*
In the same way ,
the second also ,
and the third ,
to the seventh .
*
After them all ,
the woman died .
*
In the resurrection therefore ,
whose wife will she be of the seven ?
For they all had her ."
*
But Jesus answered them , "
You are mistaken ,
not knowing the Scriptures ,
nor the power of God .
*
For in the resurrection they neither marry ,
nor are given in marriage ,
but are like God '
s angels in heaven .
*
But concerning the resurrection of the dead ,
haven '
t you 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 ?' {
Exodus strkjv @
3:6 }
God is not the God of the dead ,
but of the living ."
*
When the multitudes heard it ,
they were astonished at his teaching .
