Luke 20:33

Context
20:33 In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife will the woman be? 2  For all seven had married her.” 3 

1 tn Grk “took a wife” (an idiom for marrying a woman).

2 sn The point is a dilemma. In a world arguing a person should have one wife, whose wife will she be in the afterlife? The question was designed to show that (in the opinion of the Sadducees) resurrection leads to a major problem.

3 tn Grk “For the seven had her as wife.”
