13. Then the king said to the servants, ‘Tie him up hand and foot and throw him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!’
14. For many are called but few are chosen.”
15. Then the Pharisees went and consulted so that they could entrap him with a statement.
16. And they sent their disciples to him with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that you are truthful and teach the way of God in truth, and you do not care what anyone thinks, because you do not regard the opinion of people.
17. Therefore tell us what you think. Is it permitted to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
18. But because he knew their maliciousness, Jesus said, “Hypocrites! Why are you testing me?
19. Show me the coin for the tax!” So they brought him a denarius.
20. And he said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?”
21. They said to him, “Caesar’s.” Then he said to them, “Therefore give to Caesar the things of Caesar, and to God the things of God!”
22. And when they heard this, they were astonished, and they left him and went away.
23. On that day Sadducees—who say there is no resurrection—came up to him and asked him,
24. saying, “Teacher, Moses said if someone dies without having children, his brother is to marry his wife and father descendants for his brother.
25. Now there were seven brothers with us. And the first died after getting married, and because he did not have descendants, he left his wife to his brother.
26. So also the second and the third, up to the seventh.
27. And last of all the woman died.
28. In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her as wife.”
29. But Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken, because you do not know the scriptures or the power of God!
30. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels of God in heaven.
31. Now concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, who said,
32. “I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob”? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living!”
33. And when the crowds heard this, they were amazed at his teaching.
