Luke 20:27-28

A Question About Marriage and the Resurrection

27 Now some of the Sadducees--who deny {that there is a resurrection}--came up [and] asked him,
28 saying, "Teacher, Moses wrote for us if someone's brother dies having a wife, and this man is childless, that his brother should take the wife and {father} descendants for his brother.
