Luke 20:36-44 English Standard Version (ESV)

36. for they cannot die anymore, because they are equal to angels and are sons of God, being sonsof the resurrection.

37. But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.

38. Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to him.”

39. Then some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you have spoken well.”

40. For they no longer dared to ask him any question.

41. But he said to them, “How can they say that the Christ is David’s son?

42. For David himself says in the Book of Psalms, “‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,

43. until I make your enemies your footstool.”’

44. David thus calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
