Deeper Theme: Our mind cannot fully comprehend life in eternity. It will be much more fulfilling than anything this life can offer.
What teaching of Moses are the Sadducees referring to?

The law of the levirate marriage

levir (Lat.) = husband’s brrother

The brother should marry the widow ➔
provision and protection.

The brother could refuse (halitza)…
Is this a true story?

Well, suppose there were seven brothers. (NLT)

It may be a fictitious story; if it is true…poor woman!

Purpose: discredit the idea of resurrection…
What does Jesus twofold assertion imply?

Unmasking: you don’t care about the
woman; your issue is resurrection.

Scripture: it clearly teaches resurrection

God’s power: He can perform resurrection
What does it mean “like angels of God in heaven”?

Jesus’ answer is rather confusing.

He makes it even more complicated; they didn’t believe angels exist (Acts 23:8)

He wants to silence them! (?)
Are the angels sexual beings?

Is procreation limited to planet earth?

Can wholeness/happiness be imagined
without sexuality?

Does lack of sexuality imply lack of
corporality?
Does this mean that God doesn’t care about the dead?

Jesus quotes from the Pentateuch (Ex. 3:6.16)

When God said that to Moses, they were dead →
they will be resurrected.

“You should care more about the living than
about the dead.”
Take Away

• It is within God’s power to solve our “dilemmas” about what life after resurrection will look like.

• Our mind cannot fully comprehend life in eternity…; it will be much more fulfilling than anything this life can offer.
