For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage--"neither can they die any more" (Luk 20:36). Marriage is ordained to perpetuate the human family; but as there will be no breaches by death in the future state, this ordinance will cease.
but are as the angels which are in heaven--In Luke (Luk 20:36) it is "equal unto the angels." But as the subject is death and resurrection, we are not warranted to extend the equality here taught beyond the one point--the immortality of their nature. A beautiful clause is added in Luke (Luk 20:36) --"and are the children of God"--not in respect of character, which is not here spoken of, but of nature--"being the children of the resurrection," as rising to an undecaying existence (Rom 8:21, Rom 8:23), and so being the children of their Father's immortality (Ti1 6:16). |

16 Who [3588] only [3441] hath [2192] immortality [110], dwelling [3611] in the light [5457] which no man [3762] can approach unto [676]; whom [3739] no man [444] hath seen [1492], nor [3761] can [1410] see [1492]: to whom [3739] be honour [5092] and [2532] power [2904] everlasting [166].

36 Neither [3777] [1063] can [1410] they die [599] any more [2089]: for [1063] they are [1526] equal unto the angels [2465]; and [2532] are [1526] the children [5207] of God [2316], being [5607] the children [5207] of the resurrection [386].

4 Being made [1096] so much [5118] better than [2909] the angels [32], as [3745] he hath by inheritance obtained [2816] a more excellent [1313] name [3686] than [3844] they [846].
52 In [1722] a moment [823], in [1722] the twinkling [4493] of an eye [3788], at [1722] the last [2078] trump [4536]: for [1063] the trumpet shall sound [4537], and [2532] the dead [3498] shall be raised [1453] incorruptible [862], and [2532] we [2249] shall be changed [236].
