Contextual Overview

²⁷ Some Sadducees, who believed people would not rise from the dead, came to Jesus. ²⁸ They asked, "Teacher, Moses wrote that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, then that man must marry the widow and have children for his brother. ²⁹ Once there were seven brothers. The first brother married and died, but had no children. ³⁰ Then the second brother married the widow, and he died. ³¹ And the third brother married the widow, and he died. The same thing happened with all seven brothers; they died and had no children. ³² Finally, the woman died also. ³³ Since all seven brothers had married her, whose wife will she be when people rise from the dead?" ³⁴ Jesus said to them, "On earth, people marry and are given to someone to marry. ³⁵ But those who will be worthy to be raised from the dead and live again will not marry, nor will they be given to someone to marry. ³⁶ In that life they are like angels and cannot die. They are children of God, because they have been raised from the dead.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

There were therefore seven brethren,.... In the place where these Sadducees dwelt; or, however, that were known by them; at least they supposed such a case, and it might be fact:

and the first took a wife, and died without children; son or daughter, and so had none to keep up his name, and to possess his inheritance.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
