New Testament

Mark 12:16-23 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

16. And they brought it to him. And he said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?" They said to him, "Caesar's."

17. So in response, Jesus said to them, "Then render to Caesar, the things that are of Caesar; and to God, the things that are of God." And they wondered over him.

18. And the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, approached him. And they questioned him, saying:

19. "Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if any man's brother will have died and left behind a wife, and not have left behind sons, his brother should take his wife to himself and should raise up offspring for his brother.

20. So then, there were seven brothers. And the first took a wife, and he died without leaving behind offspring.

21. And the second took her, and he died. And neither did he leave behind offspring. And the third acted similarly.

22. And in like manner, each of the seven received her and did not leave behind offspring. Last of all, the woman also died.

23. Therefore, in the resurrection, when they will rise again, to which of them will she be a wife? For each of the seven had her as wife."
