Wesley's Notes for Matthew 22:28


22:29 Ye err, not knowing the Scriptures - Which plainly assert a resurrection. Nor the power of God - Which is well able to effect it. How many errors flow from the same source?

22:30 They are as the angels - Incorruptible and immortal. So is the power of God shown in them! So little need had they of marriage!

Mt 22:28 Whose wife shall she be of the seven? They state a fictitious case that they suppose will make the doctrine of the resurrection ridiculous.
