Sadducees who denied resurrection posed a question about a woman married successively to seven brothers. Jesus answered that they misunderstood both Scripture and God's power and showed from Moses that God is God of the living (Matthew 22:23-33).

The first one married and died without having children. So he left his wife to his brother.
