Verse
Matthew - ch 22 v 21 - 40
- They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.
- When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.
- The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
- Saying, Master, 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, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
- Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
- And last of all the woman died also.
- Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
- 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 the angels of God 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 multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.
- But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
- Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
- Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
- Jesus 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 first and great commandment.
- And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
- On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
