Luke 20: 27-40 - 'In God all men are alive.'
Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs:
- 330 (In 'Who are Angels'?) - As purely spiritual creatures angels have intelligence and will: they are personal and immortal creatures, surpassing in perfection all visible creatures, as the splendor of their glory bears witness.
- 575 (In 'Jesus and Israel') - Many of Jesus’ deeds and words constituted a “sign of contradiction,” but more so for the religious authorities in Jerusalem, whom the Gospel according to John often calls simply “the Jews,” than for the ordinary People of God. To be sure, Christ’s relations with the Pharisees were not exclusively polemical. Some Pharisees warned him of the danger he was courting; Jesus praises some of them, like the scribe of Mark 12:34, and dines several times at their homes. Jesus endorses some of the teachings imparted by this religious elite of God’s people: the resurrection of the dead, certain forms of piety (almsgiving, fasting, and prayer), the custom of addressing God as Father.

0:00.0 | Hi everyone. Welcome back to Daily Gospel Exegesis. Let's dive straight into today's passage. |
0:16.4 | This is the gospel reading you would hear at Mass, so we'll read it out, and then we'll have a go at doing a |
0:21.3 | verse-by-verse exegesis of it. Some Sadducees, those who say there is no resurrection, |
0:28.2 | approached Jesus, and they put this question to him. Master, we have, we have it from Moses in writing |
0:35.2 | that if a man's married brother dies childless, the man must marry |
0:40.5 | the widow to raise up children for his brother. Well then, there were seven brothers. The first, |
0:47.3 | having married a wife, died childless. The second and then the third married the widow. And the same with all seven, they died leaving no children. |
0:58.6 | Finally the woman herself died. |
1:01.4 | Now at the resurrection, to which of them will she be wife since she had been married to all |
1:06.6 | seven? |
1:09.6 | Jesus replied, The children of this world take wives and husbands, but those who are judged |
1:15.0 | worthy of a place in the other world and in the resurrection from the dead do not marry because |
1:21.0 | they can no longer die, for they are the same as the angels, and being children of the resurrection, they are sons of God. |
1:30.6 | And Moses himself implies that the dead rise again, in the passage about the bush, where he calls |
1:36.4 | the Lord the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Now he is God not of the dead, but of the living, for to him, all men are in fact |
1:48.5 | alive. Some scribes then spoke up, well put master, they said, because they would dare not ask him |
1:57.2 | any more questions. Interesting passage. So what's the context here? Jesus has just arrived |
2:05.5 | in Jerusalem for the last week of his life. Already now he's cleansed the temple and now he's teaching |
2:11.5 | in the temple in the days leading up to his death. The Jewish leaders want to get rid of Jesus. |
2:17.0 | And just before this, he's been asked by the |
2:19.1 | Jewish leaders about paying taxes to Caesar. And that's covered as a bonus episode of the podcast |
2:24.2 | on the Patreon page if you want to check out what happens just prior to this. We get to verse 27. |
