New Testament

Luke 20:30-39 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

30. The second one married his brother's widow, and he also died without having any children.

31. The same thing happened to the third one. Finally, all seven brothers married that woman and died without having any children.

32. At last the woman died.

33. When God raises people from death, whose wife will this woman be? All seven brothers had married her.

34. Jesus answered:The people in this world get married.

35. But in the future world no one who is worthy to rise from death will either marry

36. or die. They will be like the angels and will be God's children, because they have been raised to life.

37. In the story about the burning bush, Moses clearly shows that people will live again. He said, “The Lord is the God worshipped by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”

38. So the Lord isn't the God of the dead, but of the living. This means that everyone is alive as far as God is concerned.

39. Some of the teachers of the Law of Moses said, “Teacher, you have given a good answer!”
