d married a
wife, deceased, and having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
likewise the second also, and the third unto the seventh. And last of
all the woman died also. Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife shall
she be? for they all had her. Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do
err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the
resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as
the angels of God in heaven. But as touching the resurrection of the
dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, I
am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God

Eva's turn came next and she read: "'And the graves were opened; and
many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves
after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto

others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain
a better resurrection.'"

"Will the resurrection be of all the dead, Grace? the wicked as well as

resurrection of damnation.'"

It was little Elsie's turn and she read a verse in Acts pointed out by

and unjust.'"

It was Ned's turn now and he read a passage selected for him by his
mother: "'For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also
received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures;
and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according
to the Scriptures.'"

It was the captain's turn again and he went on with the reading: "'Now
if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you
that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there be no
resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: and if Christ be not
