24 master, said they, by the law of Moses, in case a man die without children, his brother is oblig'd to marry his wife, in order to perpetuate his brother's name. 25 now there happen'd among us seven brothers, the first married but died without issue, leaving his wife to his brother: 26 the same happen'd to the second, and the third, and so on to the seventh. 27 last of all the woman died too: 28 now if there be another life after this, whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all married her. 29 Jesus answered them, you are mistaken, for want of a true notion of the scriptures, and of the divine power. 30 for in the other life after this, there will be no such thing as marriage; but they will be as the angels of God in heaven.
