Luke 20:29-36 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

29. Once there were seven brothers; the eldest got married and died without having children.

30. Then the second one married the woman,

31. and then the third. The same thing happened to all seven — they died without having children.

32. Last of all, the woman died.

33. Now, on the day when the dead rise to life, whose wife will she be? All seven of them had married her.”

34. Jesus answered them, “The men and women of this age marry,

35. but the men and women who are worthy to rise from death and live in the age to come will not then marry.

36. They will be like angels and cannot die. They are the children of God, because they have risen from death.
