Luke 20:37-47 ▼

37 But that the dead are raised even Moses showed at the bush, as he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.’

38 Now He is not the God of the dead but of the living, for all live to Him.”

39 And answering, some of the scribes said, “Teacher, You spoke well!”

40 For no longer did they dare to question Him anything.

41 And He said to them, “How do they say the Christ is Son of David?

42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand

43 until I place Your enemies as a footstool for Your feet.”’

44 David therefore 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, who are wanting to walk in long robes, and loving greetings in the marketplaces and first seats in the synagogues and first places at the suppers,

47 who devour the houses of widows and pray at great length as a pretext. These will receive more abundant judgment.”
