Luke 20:28–36
28They asked him, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man’s brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife and raise up children for his brother.↗
29There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.↗
30The second took her as wife, and he died childless.↗
31The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.↗
32Afterward the woman also died.↗
33Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”↗
34Jesus said to them,“The children of this age marry and are given in marriage.↗
35But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage.↗
36For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.↗
