Jesus is presented with tough questions. He not only answers them but He also silences His critics. After answering an absurd and seemingly question about a women who married seven brothers who died one at a time...Jesus blew them away with..." "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. But about the resurrection of the dead—have you not read what God said to you, 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? He is not the God of the dead but of the living." Ironically, the Sadducees did even believe in Heaven...what hypocrites!
About taxes....
"Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."
In response to the unanswerable law question from a lawyer...
"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
Jesus walked on water, He fed multitudes with loaves and fishes, He gave sight to the blind, and...He answered unanswerable questions with silencing truth!
