Luke 20:37-39

Expanded Bible

³⁷ Even Moses clearly showed that the dead are raised to life. When he wrote about the burning bush [Ex. 3:1–12], he said that the Lord is ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob [Ex. 3:6; ^CGod is still the God of the patriarchs, so they must have a continued existence after death].’ ³⁸ God is the God of the living, not the dead, because all people are alive to him.”

³⁹ Some of the ·teachers of the law [scribes] said, “Teacher, ·your answer was good [well said!].”
