Luke 20:22-32

22 Is it permitted [for] us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

23 But seeing through their craftiness, he said to them,

24 "Show me a denarius! Whose image and inscription does it have?" And they answered [and] said, "Caesar's."

25 So he said to them, "Well then, give to Caesar the things of Caesar, and to God the things of God!"

26 And they were not able to catch [him] in a statement in the sight of the people, and astonished at his answer, they became silent.

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.

29 Now there were seven brothers, and the first took a wife [and] died childless,

30 and the second,

31 and the third took her, and likewise also the seven did not leave children and died.

32 Finally the woman also died.
