The Scriptures 1998

Matthew 22:22-32 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

22. And having heard, they marvelled, and left Him and went away.

23. On that day Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him and asked Him,

24. saying, “Teacher, Mosheh said that if anyone should die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise offspring for his brother.

25. “And there were with us seven brothers, and the first died after he had married, and having no children, left his wife to his brother.

26. “In the same way the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.

27. “And last of all the woman died too.

28. “At the resurrection, then, whose wife of the seven shall she be – for all had her?”

29. And יהושע answering, said to them, “You go astray, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of Elohim.

30. “For in the resurrection they do not marry, nor are they given in marriage, but are as messengers of Elohim in heaven.

31. “And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by Elohim, saying,

32. ‘I am the Elohim of Aḇraham, and the Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ’? Elohim is not the Elohim of the dead, but of the living.”
