Mark 12: 18-27 - 'The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob is the God of the living.'

Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs:

- 993 (in 'The Progressive Nature of the Resurrection') - The Pharisees and many of the Lord's contemporaries hoped for the resurrection. Jesus teaches it firmly. To the Sadducees who deny it he answers, "Is not this why you are wrong, that you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God?" Faith in the resurrection rests on faith in God who "is not God of the dead, but of the living."

- 1619 (in 'Virginity for the Sake of the Kingdom') - Virginity for the sake of the kingdom of heaven is an unfolding of baptismal grace, a powerful sign of the supremacy of the bond with Christ and of the ardent expectation of his return, a sign which also recalls that marriage is a reality of this present age which is passing away.

0:00.0	Hi everyone. Welcome back to the Daily Gospel Exegesis podcast. Thank you so much for your support.
0:17.6	I know many of you have benefited from this podcast and it's really given you
0:21.4	a passion for the word of God. If you have been listening for a while, I would love to hear from you.
0:26.6	Tell us what you love about the podcast, how you first heard about it, the way you listened to it.
0:32.2	All of that is really great feedback and you can send in questions or information about yourself to the ministry
0:39.4	via the email address at the bottom of the show notes, which is Logical Bible Study at gmail.com.
0:45.3	I would love to hear from you. Today we're looking at a really interesting encounter here
0:50.0	with Jesus and the Jewish leaders, Mark chapter 12 verses 18 to 27.
0:57.5	Some Sadducees who deny that there is a resurrection came to him and they put this question to him.
1:05.0	Master, we have it from Moses in writing. If a man's brother dies leaving a wife but no child, the man must marry the widow to
1:13.5	raise up children for his brother. Now, there were seven brothers. The first married a wife and then
1:20.9	died leaving no children. The second married the widow, and he too died leaving no children.
1:32.3	With the third it was the same and none of the seven left any children.
1:34.8	Last of all, the woman died.
1:43.4	Now at the resurrection, when they rise again, whose wife will she be since she had been married to all seven.
1:45.8	Jesus said to them,
1:52.1	is not the reason why you go wrong that you understand neither the scriptures nor the power of God?
1:56.5	For when they rise from the dead, men and women do not marry.
1:59.2	No, they are like the angels in heaven.
2:13.2	Now about the dead rising again, have you never read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God spoke to him and said, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?
2:17.6	He is God, not of the dead, but of the living.
2:20.6	You are very much mistaken.
