nto the roads, collected all, as many as they found, both bad and
good; and the wedding feast was fully furnished with guests. (11)Then
the king coming in to look around on the guests, saw there a man who
had not put on the wedding garment: (12)and he saith to him, Friend,
how came thou in here, not having the garment provided for the marriage
feast? And he was speechless. (13)Then said the king to the servants,
Bind his feet and hands, and take him away, and cast him into the
darkness, which is without; there shall be weeping and gnashing of
teeth. (14)For many are called, but few elect.
(15)Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel together how they might
lay a snare to entrap him in his discourse. (16)And they sent to him
their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou
art true, and teachest the way of God with veracity; and carest for no
man, for thou regardest not the person of men: (17)tell us therefore,
What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to pay tribute to Caesar, or not?
(18)But Jesus knew their wicked design, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye
hypocrites? (19)Shew me the money for the tribute; and they brought him

marvelled, and leaving him, went away.

no resurrection, and they put a question to him, (24)saying, Master,
Moses said, "If a man die having no children, his brother in right of
affinity shall marry his wife, and raise up seed for his brother."
(25)Now there were with us seven brothers; and the first marrying,
died, and had no offspring, and left his wife to his brother;
(26)likewise the second also; then the third; so on to the seven.
(27)Last of all the woman died also. (28)In the resurrection therefore,
whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her. (29)Jesus
then answering, said unto them, Ye are in an error, from not knowing
the Scriptures, and the power of God. (30)For at the resurrection, they
neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God
in heaven. (31)But with respect to the resurrection of the dead, have
ye not read what was spoken to you of God, saying, (32)"I am the God of
Abraham, and the God of Isaac,
