MATTHEW 22:29 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“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 like angels in heaven. The nature of resurrection life: no marriage in the resurrection, angels as the model. The resurrection is not the resuscitation of earthly social structures but a transformation into a different mode of existence. The Sadducees' absurdity depends on the assumption that resurrection life reproduces earthly marriage — an assumption that is simply wrong.
