  • Exod 3:2-6 : 2 The angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that the bush was burning with fire, but it was not consumed. 3 So Moses said, 'I will turn aside to see this remarkable sight—why the bush is not burning up.' 4 When the LORD saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him out of the bush and said, 'Moses, Moses!' And Moses replied, 'Here I am.' 5 God said, 'Do not come any closer. Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.' 6 Then he said, 'I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'

Come to the wedding feast.' 5 But they paid no attention and went away, one to his field, another to his business. 6 The rest seized his servants, mistreated them, and killed them. 7 The king was enraged. He sent his army, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city. 8 Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding banquet is ready, but those invited were not worthy.' 9 Go therefore to the main roads, and invite everyone you find to the wedding feast. 10 So those servants went out into the roads and gathered all they found, both good and bad. The wedding hall was filled with guests. 11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. 12 He said to him, 'Friend, how did you get in here without wedding clothes?' The man was speechless. 13 Then the king told the attendants, 'Tie him hand and foot, and throw him out into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.' 14 For many are invited, but few are chosen. 15 Then the Pharisees went and plotted how they might trap him in his words. 16 And they sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians, saying, 'Teacher, we know that you are truthful and teach the way of God in truth.

The first married and died, and since he had no children, he left his wife to his brother. 26 The same thing happened to the second and third, and so on through all seven. 27 Last of all, the woman died too. 28 In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her as a wife.' 29 Jesus answered them, 'You are mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels in heaven.' 31 And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what God said to you: 32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
