Matthew 22:23-46
- 23
- The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
- 24
- Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
- 25
- Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
- 26
- Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
- 27
- And last of all the woman died also.
- 28
- Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
- 29
- Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing 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 as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto 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.
- 33
- And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.
- 34
- But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
- 35
- Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
- 36
- Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
- 37
- Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
- 38
- This is the first and great commandment.
- 39
- And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
- 40
- On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
- 41
- While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
- 42
- Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David.
- 43
- He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
- 44
- The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
- 45
- If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
- 46
- And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
