Matthew 22:28

Verse 28 of 46. The 22nd of 28 chapters in Matthew, in The Gospels.

24saying, “Teacher, Moses said, ‘If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’

25Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no offspring left his wife to his brother.

26In the same way, the second also, and the third, to the seventh.

27After them all, the woman died.

28In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her.”

29But Jesus answered them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

30For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like God’s angels in heaven.

31But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven’t you 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.”
