Mark 12:17-27

17 And Jesus said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's. And they were full of wonder at him.

18 And there came to him Sadducees, who say there is no coming back from the dead; and they put a question to him, saying,

19 Master, in the law Moses says, If a man's brother comes to his end, and has a wife still living and no child, it is right for his brother to take his wife, and get a family for his brother.

20 There were seven brothers: and the first took a wife, and at his death there were no offspring;

21 And the second took her, and at his death there were no offspring; and the third the same:

22 And all the seven had no seed. Last of all the woman herself came to her death.

23 In the future life, when they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for the seven had her for a wife.

24 Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?

25 When they come back from the dead, they do not get married, but are like the angels in heaven.

26 But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: you are greatly in error.
