Matthew 22:23-32

Anderson(i) 23 On that day there came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection; and they put a question to him, 24 saying: Teacher, Moses commanded, If any one die without children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up children for his brother. 25 Now there were with us seven brothers; and the first took a wife, and died; and, having no child, left his wife to his brother. 26 In like manner also the second, and the third, to the seventh. 27 Last of all, the woman also died. 28 Therefore, in the resurrection, of which of the seven will she be the wife? for they all had her. 29 Jesus answered and said to them: You err, because you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. 31 But, concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying: 32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
