As Jesus teaches at the Temple precincts, the Sadducees confront him regarding resurrection. They do not believe in the resurrection, simply because it is not in the Torah.
-
Previously, they and other religious authorities challenged Jesus about his authority to cleanse the Temple and about paying taxes to the emperor.
Now the Sadducees present their argument against the resurrection using the Levirate marriage. Certainly, if that law applies even in the afterlife, there will be chaos in heaven.
Jesus explains with authority that in heaven, there are no more marriages. People are like angels who do not die and have no need to reproduce. Jesus defends his teaching by quoting what God said to Moses in Exodus:
"I am... the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob" (Ex 3:6; v 37), with the final remark, "He is... God... of the living" (v 38). This closes the controversy.
First Reading - 1 Mc 6:1-13
