Luke 20:26-36

Listen to Luke 20:26-36
26 And they were unable * to 1catch Him in a saying in the presence of the people; and being amazed at His answer, they became silent.

Is There a Resurrection?

27 2Now there came to Him some of the 3Sadducees (who say that there is no resurrection ),
28 and they questioned Him, saying, "Teacher, Moses wrote for us that 4IF A MAN'S BROTHER DIES, having a wife, AND HE IS CHILDLESS, HIS BROTHER SHOULD MARRY THE WIFE AND RAISE UP CHILDREN TO 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 married her; and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
32 "Finally the woman died also.
33 "In the resurrection therefore, which one's wife will she be? For all seven had married her."
34 Jesus said to them, "The sons of 5this age marry and are given in marriage,
35 but those who are considered worthy to attain to 6that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;
36 for they cannot * even die anymore, because they are like angels, and are 7sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
