Marc 12:20

Listen to Marc 12:20
20 Or, il y avait sept frères. Le premier se maria, et mourut sans laisser de postérité.

Marc 12:20 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 12:20

Now there were seven brethren
In a certain family, at a certain place; perhaps at Jerusalem, who were brethren by the father's side; for such only were reckoned so, and such only did this law oblige:

and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed:
no child: hence it is clear that the ancient Jews used the word seed, of a single person, as these Sadducees did; though modern ones deny such an use of it in our present controversies with them about the sense of ( Genesis 3:15 ) ( 22:18 ) ; (See Gill on Matthew 22:25).

Marc 12:20 In-Context

18 Les sadducéens, qui disent qu'il n'y a point de résurrection, vinrent auprès de Jésus, et lui firent cette question:
19 Maître, voici ce que Moïse nous a prescrit: Si le frère de quelqu'un meurt, et laisse une femme, sans avoir d'enfants, son frère épousera sa veuve, et suscitera une postérité à son frère.
20 Or, il y avait sept frères. Le premier se maria, et mourut sans laisser de postérité.
21 Le second prit la veuve pour femme, et mourut sans laisser de postérité. Il en fut de même du troisième,
22 et aucun des sept ne laissa de postérité. Après eux tous, la femme mourut aussi.
