Luke 20:30-40 Amplified Bible (AMP)

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.

37. But that the dead are raised [from death]–even Moses made known and showed in the passage concerning the [burning] bush, where he calls the Lord, The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. [Exod. 3:6.]

38. Now He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all men are alive [whether in the body or out of it] and they are alive [not dead] unto Him [in definite relationship to Him].

39. And some of the scribes replied, Teacher, you have spoken well and expertly [so that there is no room for blame].

40. For they did not dare to question Him further.
