"Teacher, Moses wrote us that if a man dies and leaves a wife but no child, his brother is obligated to take the widow to wife and get her with child.
29
Well, there once were seven brothers. The first took a wife. He died childless.
30
The second married her and died,
31
then the third, and eventually all seven had their turn, but no child.
32
After all that, the wife died.
33
That wife, now - in the resurrection whose wife is she? All seven married her."
34
Jesus said, "Marriage is a major preoccupation here,
35
but not there. Those who are included in the resurrection of the dead will no longer be concerned with marriage
36
nor, of course, with death. They will have better things to think about, if you can believe it. All ecstasies and intimacies then will be with God.
37
Even Moses exclaimed about resurrection at the burning bush, saying, 'God: God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob!'
38
God isn't the God of dead men, but of the living. To him all are alive."
