Matthew 22:31-46 ▼

31 But as touchyng the resurrection of the dead: haue ye not read that which is spoken vnto you of God, which sayth.

32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the lyuyng.

33 And when the multitudes hearde this, they were astonyed at his doctrine.

34 But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Saducees to silence, they came together.

35 And one of them, which was a lawyer, asked hym a question, temptyng hym, and saying:

36 Maister, which is the great commaundent in the lawe?

37 Iesus sayde vnto hym: Thou shalt loue the Lorde thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy mynde.

38 This is the first and great commaundement.

39 And the seconde is lyke vnto this. Thou shalt loue thy neyghbour as thy selfe.

40 In these two commaundementes, hang all the lawe and the prophetes.

41 Whyle the Pharisees were gathered together, Iesus asked them,

42 Saying: what thynke ye of Christe? whose sonne is he? They sayde vnto hym the sonne of Dauid.

43 He sayde vnto them: howe then doth Dauid in spirite call him Lorde, saying:

44 The Lorde sayd vnto my Lorde: sit thou on my ryght hande, tyll I make thyne enemyes thy footestoole?

45 If Dauid then call him Lorde, howe is he then his sonne?

46 And no man was able to aunswere hym a worde: neither durst any man (from that day foorth) aske hym any mo questions.
