Mar 12:25
Are as the angels - That is, as the angels in respect to connections and relations. What those connections and relations may be we know not, but this passage teaches that the special relation of "marriage" will not exist. It does not affirm, however, that there will be no recollection of former marriages, or no recognition of each other as having existed in this tender relation.
Mar 12:26
How in the bush - At the burning bush. See Exo 3:16. The meaning is, "in that part of the book of Exodus which contains the account of the burning bush. When there were no chapters and verses, it was the easiest way of quoting a book of the Old Testament "by the subject," and in this way it was often done by the Jews. |

6 But [1161] when Paul [3972] perceived [1097] that [3754] the one [1520] part [3313] were [2076] Sadducees [4523], and [1161] the other [2087] Pharisees [5330], he cried out [2896] in [1722] the council [4892], Men [435] and brethren [80], I [1473] am [1510] a Pharisee [5330], the son [5207] of a Pharisee [5330]: of [4012] the hope [1680] and [2532] resurrection [386] of the dead [3498] I [1473] am called in question [2919].
7 And [1161] when he [846] had [2980] so [5124] said [2980], there arose [1096] a dissension [4714] between the Pharisees [5330] and [2532] the Sadducees [4523]: and [2532] the multitude [4128] was divided [4977].
16 Go [03212], and gather [0622] the elders [02205] of Israel [03478] together [0622], and say [0559] unto them, The LORD [03068] God [0430] of your fathers [01], the God [0430] of Abraham [085], of Isaac [03327], and of Jacob [03290], appeared [07200] unto me, saying [0559], I have surely [06485] visited [06485] you, and seen that which is done [06213] to you in Egypt [04714]:
26 And [1161] as touching [4012] the dead [3498], that [3754] they rise [1453]: have ye [314] not [3756] read [314] in [1722] the book [976] of Moses [3475], how [5613] in [1909] the bush [942] God [2316] spake [2036] unto him [846], saying [3004], I [1473] am the God [2316] of Abraham [11], and [2532] the God [2316] of Isaac [2464], and [2532] the God [2316] of Jacob [2384]?
25 For [1063] when [3752] they shall rise [450] from [1537] the dead [3498], they neither [3777] marry [1060], nor [3777] are given in marriage [1061]; but [235] are [1526] as [5613] the angels [32] which [3588] are in [1722] heaven [3772].
23 The same [1722] [1565] day [2250] came [4334] to him [846] the Sadducees [4523], which [3588] say [3004] that there is [1511] no [3361] resurrection [386], and [2532] asked [1905] him [846],
24 Saying [3004], Master [1320], Moses [3475] said [2036], If [1437] a man [5100] die [599], having [2192] no [3361] children [5043], his [846] brother [80] shall marry [1918] his [846] wife [1135], and [2532] raise up [450] seed [4690] unto his [846] brother [80].
25 Now [1161] there were [2258] with [3844] us [2254] seven [2033] brethren [80]: and [2532] the first [4413], when he had married a wife [1060], deceased [5053], and [2532], having [2192] no [3361] issue [4690], left [863] his [846] wife [1135] unto his [846] brother [80]:
26 Likewise [3668] the second [1208] also [2532], and [2532] the third [5154], unto [2193] the seventh [2033].
27 And [1161] last [5305] of all [3956] the woman [1135] died [599] also [2532].
28 Therefore [3767] in [1722] the resurrection [386] whose [5101] wife [1135] shall she be [2071] of the seven [2033]? for [1063] they all [3956] had [2192] her [846].
29 Jesus [2424] answered [611] and [1161] said [2036] unto them [846], Ye do err [4105], not [3361] knowing [1492] the scriptures [1124], nor [3366] the power [1411] of God [2316].
30 For [1063] in [1722] the resurrection [386] they neither [3777] marry [1060], nor [3777] are given in marriage [1547], but [235] are [1526] as [5613] the angels [32] of God [2316] in [1722] heaven [3772].
31 But [1161] as touching [4012] the resurrection [386] of the dead [3498], have ye [314] not [3756] read [314] that which [3588] was spoken [4483] unto you [5213] by [5259] God [2316], saying [3004],
32 I [1473] am [1510] the God [2316] of Abraham [11], and [2532] the God [2316] of Isaac [2464], and [2532] the God [2316] of Jacob [2384]? God [2316] is [2076] not [3756] the God [2316] of the dead [3498], but [235] of the living [2198].
33 And [2532] when the multitude [3793] heard [191] this, they were astonished [1605] at [1909] his [846] doctrine [1322].
22 And [2532] the seven [2033] had [2983] her [846], and [2532] left [863] no [3756] seed [4690]: last [2078] of all [3956] the woman [1135] died [599] also [2532].
23 In [1722] the resurrection [386] therefore [3767], when [3752] they shall rise [450], whose [5101] wife [1135] shall she be [2071] of them [846]? for [1063] the seven [2033] had [2192] her [846] to wife [1135].
7 But [1161] when he saw [1492] many [4183] of the Pharisees [5330] and [2532] Sadducees [4523] come [2064] to [1909] his [846] baptism [908], he said [2036] unto them [846], O generation [1081] of vipers [2191], who [5101] hath warned [5263] you [5213] to flee [5343] from [575] the wrath [3709] to come [3195]?
27 Then [1161] came [4334] to him certain [5100] of the Sadducees [4523], which [3588] deny [483] that there is [1511] any [3361] resurrection [386]; and they asked [1905] him [846],
23 And [2532] when he [846] was come [2064] into [1519] the temple [2411], the chief priests [749] and [2532] the elders [4245] of the people [2992] came [4334] unto him [846] as he was teaching [1321], and said [3004], By [1722] what [4169] authority [1849] doest thou [4160] these things [5023]? and [2532] who [5101] gave [1325] thee [4671] this [5026] authority [1849]?
23 The same [1722] [1565] day [2250] came [4334] to him [846] the Sadducees [4523], which [3588] say [3004] that there is [1511] no [3361] resurrection [386], and [2532] asked [1905] him [846],
24 Saying [3004], Master [1320], Moses [3475] said [2036], If [1437] a man [5100] die [599], having [2192] no [3361] children [5043], his [846] brother [80] shall marry [1918] his [846] wife [1135], and [2532] raise up [450] seed [4690] unto his [846] brother [80].
25 Now [1161] there were [2258] with [3844] us [2254] seven [2033] brethren [80]: and [2532] the first [4413], when he had married a wife [1060], deceased [5053], and [2532], having [2192] no [3361] issue [4690], left [863] his [846] wife [1135] unto his [846] brother [80]:
26 Likewise [3668] the second [1208] also [2532], and [2532] the third [5154], unto [2193] the seventh [2033].
27 And [1161] last [5305] of all [3956] the woman [1135] died [599] also [2532].
28 Therefore [3767] in [1722] the resurrection [386] whose [5101] wife [1135] shall she be [2071] of the seven [2033]? for [1063] they all [3956] had [2192] her [846].
29 Jesus [2424] answered [611] and [1161] said [2036] unto them [846], Ye do err [4105], not [3361] knowing [1492] the scriptures [1124], nor [3366] the power [1411] of God [2316].
30 For [1063] in [1722] the resurrection [386] they neither [3777] marry [1060], nor [3777] are given in marriage [1547], but [235] are [1526] as [5613] the angels [32] of God [2316] in [1722] heaven [3772].
31 But [1161] as touching [4012] the resurrection [386] of the dead [3498], have ye [314] not [3756] read [314] that which [3588] was spoken [4483] unto you [5213] by [5259] God [2316], saying [3004],
32 I [1473] am [1510] the God [2316] of Abraham [11], and [2532] the God [2316] of Isaac [2464], and [2532] the God [2316] of Jacob [2384]? God [2316] is [2076] not [3756] the God [2316] of the dead [3498], but [235] of the living [2198].
