25 Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died without having children (seed). So he left his wife to his brother.

26 The same thing happened to the second and third brothers, down to the seventh.

27 And last of all, the woman died.

28 In the resurrection (rising again), then, whose wife will she be of the seven? For all of them were married to her.

29 Jesus (YHWH saves) answered, “You⁺ are mistaken because you do not know the Scriptures (Writings) or the power {dynamin} of God {Theou}.

30 In the resurrection (rising again), people will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels [the angels of God] in heaven.

31 But concerning the resurrection (rising again) of the dead, have you⁺ not read what God {Theou} said to you⁺:

32 ‘I am the God {Theos} of Abraham (father of many), the God of Isaac (he will laugh), and the God of Jacob ’ He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

33 When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at His teaching {didachē}.

34 And when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they themselves gathered together.

35 One of them, an expert in the law, tested Him with a question:

36 “Teacher {Didaskale}, which commandment is the greatest in the Law?

37 Jesus declared, “‘Love {Agapēseis} the Lord {kyrion} your God {Theon} with all your heart and with all your soul {psychē} and with all your mind .’

38 This is the first and greatest commandment.

39 And the second is like it: ‘Love {Agapēseis} your neighbor as yourself .’

40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.

41 While the Pharisees were assembled, Jesus (YHWH saves) questioned them:

42 “What do you⁺ think about the Christ (the Anointed One)? Whose son is He? “David’s, they answered.

43 Jesus said to them, “How then does David (beloved) in the Spirit {Pneumati} call Him ‘Lord {Kyrion}’? For he says:

44 ‘The Lord {Kyrios} said to my Lord {Kyriō}, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet .”’

45 So if David (beloved) calls Him ‘Lord {Kyrion},’ how can He be David’s son?

46 No one was able to answer a word, and from that day on no one dared to question Him any further.
