Lucas 20:36

36 porque no pueden ya más morir; porque son iguales a los ángeles; y son hijos de Dios, cuando son hijos de la resurrección

Lucas 20:36 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:36

Neither can they die any more
Therefore there will be no need of marrying to procreate children, to keep up a succession of men, any more than there is among the angels: for they are equal unto the angels;
in spirituality, purity and immortality; (See Gill on Matthew 22:30) and are the children of God:
as they are now by adopting grace; but, as yet, it does not appear as it will then, what they are and will be: being the children of the resurrection;
as Christ was declared to be the son of God by his resurrection, so will they appear to be the children of God by their resurrection to eternal life; for though others will rise, yet not to everlasting life, and thus appearing to be children of God, they will also be heirs of God, and enjoy the inheritance, which they will always live to possess in their persons; and therefore the case being different with them from the children of the world, they will not marry, nor be given in marriage, as they are.

Lucas 20:36 In-Context

34 Entonces respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: Los hijos de este siglo se casan, y son dados en casamiento

35 mas los que son tenidos por dignos de aquel siglo y de la resurrección de los muertos, ni se casan, ni son dados en casamiento

36 porque no pueden ya más morir; porque son iguales a los ángeles; y son hijos de Dios, cuando son hijos de la resurrección

37 Y que los muertos hayan de resucitar, aun Moisés lo enseñó junto a la zarza, cuando llama al Señor, Dios de Abraham, y Dios de Isaac, y Dios de Jacob

38 Porque Dios no es Dios de muertos, sino de vivos, porque todos viven para él
