16. And they sent out unto him their disciples with those of Herod, saying, Master, we know that thou art a lover of truth and teachest the way of God with truth and that thou takest care for no man, for thou art no respecter of persons of men.
17. Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar or not?
18. But Jesus perceived their wickedness and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?
19. Show me the coin of the tribute. And they presented unto him a denarius.
20. And he said unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?
21. They say unto him, Caesar’s. Then said he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s and unto God the things that are God’s.
22. When they had heard these words, they marvelled and left him and went away.
23. The same day the Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
24. saying, Master, Moses said, If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up seed unto his brother.
25. Now there were with us seven brothers, and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no seed, left his wife unto his brother;
26. likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
27. And last of all the woman died also.
28. Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
29. Then Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God.
30. For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
31. But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which is spoken unto you by God, who saith,
32. I AM the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
