Luke 20:32-47 ▼

32 Last of all the woman also died.

33 Therefore in the resurrection of which one of them is she the wife? for the seven had her a wife.

34 And responding Jesus said to them, The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage,

35 but those counted worthy to attain that age and the resurrection, which is from the dead,

36 neither marry nor are given in marriage; for they are not able yet to die; for they are like the angels, and sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

37 But that the dead are raised, Moses also mentioned at the Bush, when he says; The Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

38 He is not the God of the dead but of the living; for all live unto Him.

39 And certain of the scribes responding said; Teacher, you spoke beautifully.

40 And they no longer dared to ask Him anything.

41 And He said to them; How do they say that the Christ is the son of David?

42 And David himself says in the Book of the Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

43 until I may make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet.

44 Therefore David calls Him Lord, and how is He his son?

45 And all the people hearing, He said to His disciples,

46 Beware of the scribes, wishing to walk about in robes, and loving salutations in the forums, and the first seats in the synagogues, and the first couches at the suppers,

47 Who devour the houses of the widows, and pray long through pretext; they shall receive the greater judgment.
