Matthew 22:23
NASB
Matt 22:23
&
On that day {some} Sadducees (who say there is no resurrection) came to Jesus and questioned Him,
Matt 22:24
&
asking, "Teacher, Moses said, `IF A MAN DIES HAVING NO CHILDREN, HIS BROTHER AS NEXT OF KIN SHALL MARRY HIS WIFE, AND RAISE UP CHILDREN FOR HIS BROTHER.'
Matt 22:25
&
~"Now there were seven brothers with us; and the first married and died, and having no children left his wife to his brother;
Matt 22:26
&
so also the second, and the third, down to the seventh.
Matt 22:28
&
~"In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had {married} her."
Matt 22:29
&
But Jesus answered and said to them, "You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures nor the power of God.
Matt 22:30
&
~"For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
Matt 22:31
&
~"But regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God:
Matt 22:32
&
`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."
Matt 22:33
&
When the crowds heard {this,} they were astonished at His teaching.
