Luke 20:35-47 ▼

35 but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the resurrection that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage;

36 for neither are they able to die anymore—for they are like messengers—and they are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

37 And that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the Bush, since he calls the LORD the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;

38 and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.”

39 And certain of the scribes answering said, “Teacher, You said well”;

40 and they no longer dared question Him anything.

41 And He said to them, “How do they say the Christ is [the] son of David,

42 and David himself says in [the] Scroll of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, || Sit on My right hand,

43 Until I will make Your enemies Your footstool;

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

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

46 “Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are cherishing salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches at the banquets,

47 who devour the houses of the widows, and make long prayers for a pretense, these will receive more abundant judgment.”
