The Life of Jesus

So those seuen had her, and left no yssue: last of all the wife died also.

In the resurrection then, when they shall rise againe, whose wife shall she be of them? for seuen had her to wife.

Then Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Are ye not therefore deceiued, because ye knowe not the Scriptures, neither the power of God?

For when they shall rise againe from the dead, neither men marry, nor wiues are married, but are as the Angels which are in heauen.

And as touching the dead, that they shall rise againe, haue ye not read in the booke of Moses, howe in the bush God spake vnto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob?

God is not ye God of the dead, but the God of the liuing. Ye are therefore greatly deceiued.

Then came one of the Scribes that had heard them disputing together, and perceiuing that he had answered them well, he asked him, Which is the first commandement of all?

Iesus answered him, The first of all the commandements is, Heare, Israel, The Lord our God is the onely Lord.

Thou shalt therefore loue the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy minde, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandement.

And the second is like, that is, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe. There is none other commandement greater then these.

Then that Scribe said vnto him, Well, Master, thou hast saide the trueth, that there is one God, and that there is none but he,

And to loue him with all the heart, and with all the vnderstanding, and with all the soule, and with all the strength, and to loue his neighbour as himselfe, is more then all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

Then when Iesus saw that he answered discreetely, he saide vnto him, Thou art not farre from the kingdome of God. And no man after that durst aske him any question.

And Iesus answered and said teaching in the Temple, Howe say the Scribes that Christ is the sonne of Dauid?

For Dauid himselfe said by ye holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footestoole.

Then Dauid himselfe calleth him Lord: by what meanes is he then his sonne? and much people heard him gladly.

Moreouer he saide vnto them in his doctrine, Beware of the Scribes which loue to goe in long robes, and loue salutations in the markets,

And the chiefe seates in the Synagogues, and the first roumes at feastes,

Which deuoure widowes houses, euen vnder a colour of long prayers. These shall receiue the greater damnation.

And as Iesus sate ouer against the treasurie, he beheld how the people cast money into the treasurie, and many rich men cast in much.

And there came a certaine poore widowe, and she threw in two mites, which make a quadrin.

Then he called vnto him his disciples, and said vnto them, Verely I say vnto you, that this poore widowe hath cast more in, then all they which haue cast into the treasurie.

For they all did cast in of their superfluitie: but she of her pouertie did cast in all that she had, euen all her liuing.

And as he went out of the Temple, one of his disciples said vnto him, Master, see what maner stones, and what maner buildings are here.

Then Iesus answered and saide vnto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone vpon a stone, that shall not be throwen downe.
