Matthew 22:29-30

Matthew 22:29-30. Jesus answered and said, &c.— Jesus confuted their argument, by telling the Sadducees that they were ignorant of the power of God, who has created spirit as well as matter, and who can make man completely happy in the enjoyment of himself. He observed further, that the nature of the life obtained in the future state, makes marriage altogether superfluous; because in the world to come, men being immortal, like the angels, ισαγγελοι, there is no need of an increase of mankind. See on Luke 20:36.
