Mark 12:16-31 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

16. And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.

17. And Jesus said unto them, Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's. And they marveled greatly at him.

18. And there come unto him Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

19. Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave a wife behind him, and leave no child, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

20. There were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed;

21. and the second took her, and died, leaving no seed behind him; and the third likewise:

22. and the seven left no seed. Last of all the woman also died.

23. In the resurrection whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

24. Jesus said unto them, Is it not for this cause that ye err, that ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?

25. For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as angels in heaven.

26. But as touching the dead, that they are raised; have ye not read in the book of Moses, in the place concerning the Bush, how God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

27. He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: ye do greatly err.

28. And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, What commandment is the first of all?

29. Jesus answered, The first is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one:

30. and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.

31. The second is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
