[9] And on that day came the Sadducees, and said unto him, There is no life for [10] the dead. And they asked him, and said unto him, Teacher, Moses said unto us, If a man die, not having children, let his brother take his wife, and raise up seed [11] for his brother. Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first took a wife, [12] and died without children; and the second took his wife, and died without children; [13] and the third also took her; and in like manner the seven of them also, and they [14, 15] died without leaving children. And last of them all the woman died also. At the resurrection, then, which of these seven shall have this woman? for all of them took [16] her. Jesus answered and said unto them, Is it not for this that ye have erred, [17] because ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God? And the sons of this [18] world take wives, and the women become the men’s; but those that have become worthy of that world, and the resurrection from among the dead, do not take [19] [Arabic, p. 130] wives, and the women also do not become the men’s. Nor is it possible that they should die; but they are like the angels, and are the children of [20] God, because they have become the children of the resurrection. For in the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read in the book of Moses, how from the bush God said unto him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? [21] And God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all of them are alive with him. And ye have erred greatly.
