Question about the Resurrection

Luke 20:27-40

20
Chapter 20
27 But some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, approached and questioned him. 28 saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote for us: If someone's brother dies, having a wife but being childless, his brother shall take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.” 29 There were therefore seven brothers; and the first took a wife and died childless. 30 The second 31 The third took her, and likewise the seven also left no children and died. 32 Later the woman also died. 33 So in the resurrection, whose wife does the woman become? For the seven had her as wife. 34 Jesus said to them, "The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage." 35 but those deemed worthy to attain that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage 36 nor can they die anymore, for they are angels and they are sons of God, sons of the resurrection. 37 But the dead are raised, and Moses made it known at the bush, as the Lord—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—says. 38 But God is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all live. 39 But some of the scribes answered and said, "Teacher, you have spoken well." 40 For they no longer dared to question him about anything.
