“For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.”
For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor an angel, nor a spirit, but the Pharisees affirm them all — the theological anthropology is starkly opposed: Sadducean materialism denies the invisible world; Pharisaic dualism affirms spirits and resurrection. Paul's defense becomes a proxy for this eschatological divide.
