Matthew 22:23-46

Matthew 22:23-46 TLV

On that day, Sadducees (who say there is no resurrection) came to Yeshua and questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, Moses said, ‘If someone dies having no children, his brother as next of kin shall marry his widow and father children for his brother.’ Now there were seven brothers among us. The first married and died; and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother. In the same way also the second, and the third, down to the seventh. Last of all, the woman died. So in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had married her.” But answering, Yeshua said to them, “You’ve gone astray, because you don’t understand the Scriptures or the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven’t you read what was spoken to you by God, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living!” When the crowds heard this, they were astounded at His teaching. But the Pharisees, when they heard that Yeshua had silenced the Sadducees, gathered together in one place. And testing Him, one of them, a lawyer, asked, “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Torah?” And He said to him, “‘You shall love ADONAI your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire Torah and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Yeshua asked them a question, saying, “What do you think about the Messiah? Whose Son is He?” “David’s,” they say to Him. “Then how is it,” He says to them, “that David by the Ruach calls him ‘Lord’? For he says, ‘ADONAI said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’ If David then calls Him ‘Lord,’ how is He his son?” No one was able to answer Him a word. Nor did anyone dare from that day on to question Him any longer.
