Gospel Luke 20:27-40
27Now some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, approached him. And they questioned him,
28saying: “Teacher, Moses wrote for us: If any man’s brother will have died, having a wife, and if he does not have any children, then his brother should take her as his wife, and he should raise up offspring for his brother.
29And so there were seven brothers. And the first took a wife, and he died without sons.
30And the next one married her, and he also died without a son.
31And the third married her, and similarly all seven, and none of them left behind any offspring, and they each died.
32Last of all, the woman also died.
33In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For certainly all seven had her as a wife.”
34And so, Jesus said to them: “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage.
35Yet truly, those who shall be held worthy of that age, and of the resurrection from the dead, will neither be married, nor take wives.
36For they can no longer die. For they are equal to the Angels, and they are children of God, since they are children of the resurrection.
37For in truth, the dead do rise again, as Moses also showed beside the bush, when he called the Lord: ‘The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38And so he is not the God of the dead, but of the living. For all are alive to him.”
39Then some of the scribes, in response, said to him, “Teacher, you have spoken well.”
40And they no longer dared to question him about anything.

In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.
Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
