Luke 20:30-40

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 ¹this age marry and are given in marriage,

35 but those who are considered worthy to attain to ²that 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 ³sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

37 "But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in ⁴the passage about the burning bush, where he calls the Lord ⁵THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, AND THE GOD OF ISAAC, AND THE GOD OF JACOB.

38 "⁶Now He is not the God of the dead but of the living; for ⁷all live to Him."

39 Some of the scribes answered and said, "Teacher, You have spoken well."

40 For ⁸they did not have courage to question Him any longer about anything.
