Luke 20:22-36 Amplified Bible (AMP)

22. Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar or not?

23. But He recognized and understood their cunning and unscrupulousness and said to them,

24. Show Me a denarius (a coin)! Whose image and inscription does it have? They answered, Caesar's.

25. He said to them, Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.

26. So they could not in the presence of the people take hold of anything He said to turn it against Him; but marveling at His reply, they were silent.

27. Also there came to Him some Sadducees, those who say that there is no resurrection.

28. And they asked Him a question, saying, Teacher, Moses wrote for us [a law] that if a man's brother dies, leaving a wife and no children, the man shall take the woman and raise up offspring for his brother. [Deut. 25:5, 6.]

29. Now there were seven brothers; and the first took a wife and died without [having any] children.

30. And the second

31. And then the third took her, and in like manner all seven, and they died, leaving no children.

32. Last of all, the woman died also.

33. Now in the resurrection whose wife will the woman be? For the seven married her.

34. And Jesus said to them, The people of this world and present age marry and are given in marriage;

35. But those who are considered worthy to gain that other world and that future age and to attain to the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage;

36. For they cannot die again, but they are angel-like and equal to angels. And being sons of and sharers in the resurrection, they are sons of God.
