    27Some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came to him and questioned him.

    28'Teacher,' they said, 'Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but has no children, the man should marry the widow to raise up offspring for his brother.'

    29Now there were seven brothers. The first married a wife and died childless.

    30Then the second brother married her, but he also died childless.

    31The third married her as well, and in the same way, all seven brothers died, leaving no children.

    32Finally, the woman also died.

    33So in the resurrection, whose wife will she be, since all seven were married to her?

    34Jesus replied to them, 'The people of this age marry and are given in marriage.

    35But those who are considered worthy to take part in that age and in the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage.
