Bible Verses About The Sadducees

But when John saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his place of baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came and tested Jesus by asking Him to show them a sign from heaven.

“Watch out!” Jesus told them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

How do you not understand that I was not telling you about bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

Then they understood that He was not telling them to beware of the leaven used in bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

That same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him.

“Teacher,” they said, “Moses declared that if a man dies without having children, his brother is to marry the widow and raise up offspring for him.

Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died without having children. So he left his wife to his brother.

The same thing happened to the second and third brothers, down to the seventh.

And last of all, the woman died.

In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be of the seven? For all of them were married to her.”

Jesus answered, “You are mistaken because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God.

In the resurrection, people will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what God said to you:

‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.”

And when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they themselves gathered together.

“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.

Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.

Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.

In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.

In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”

Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?

When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

But concerning the dead rising, have you not read about the burning bush in the Book of Moses, how God told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”
