Matthew - ch 22 v 21 - 40
- They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.
- And when they heard it, they marvelled, and left him, and went away.
- On that day there came to him Sadducees, they that say that there is no resurrection: and they asked him,
- saying, Teacher, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
- Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first married and deceased, and having no seed left his wife unto his brother;
- in like manner the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
- And after them all, the woman died.
- In the resurrection therefore whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
- But Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
- For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as angels in heaven.
- But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,
- I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not `the God' of the dead, but of the living.
- And when the multitudes heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.

- And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, trying him:
- Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?
- And he said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
- This is the great and first commandment.
- And a second like `unto it' is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
- On these two commandments the whole law hangeth, and the prophets.
