MLV(i)
27 Now some of the Sadducees came to him, those who contradict the resurrection–there is no resurrection; and they asked him,
28 saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, in order that if anyone’s brother dies, having a wife, and this one should die childless, his brother should take the wife and should raise up seed to his brother.
29 Therefore, there were seven brethren, and the first took a wife and died childless;
30 and the second took the woman and this one died childless;
31 and the third took her, and likewise, the seven also left no children and they all died.
32 The woman also died later.
33 Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife of them does she become? For the seven had her as wife.
34 And Jesus answered and said to them, The sons of this world marry and are betrothed. 35 But those who are deemed worthy into that world and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are they betrothed, 36 for neither are they able to die anymore; for they are equal to the messengers, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection. 37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses divulged at the bush, as he calls the Lord, the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. 38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to him.
39 But some of the scribes answered and said, Teacher, you have said well.
40 But they were not daring anymore to ask him anything.
