24 Jesus answered them, "Isn`t this because you are mistaken, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God?
25 For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
26 But about the dead, that they are raised; haven`t you read in the book of Moses, at the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, `I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?`
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken."
28 One of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together. Knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, "What commandment is the greatest of all?"
29 Jesus answered, "The greatest is, `Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one:
30 you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.` This is the primary commandment.
