Luke 20 — Context

27

Marriage and the Resurrection Now some Sadducees(who contend that there is no resurrection) came to him.

28

They asked him,“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies leaving a wife but no children, that man must marry the widow and father children for his brother.

29

Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a woman and died without children.

30

The second

31

and then the third married her, and in this same way all seven died, leaving no children.

32

Finally the woman died too.

33

In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife will the woman be? For all seven had married her.”
