Marriage and the Resurrection

Marriage and the Resurrection
Luke 20.27-40

Many churches possess a sequence of pictures that, together, tell a complete story. Sometimes these are in the windows, in stained glass. Sometimes they are painted on the walls or the ceiling. Sometimes they form a frieze, a decorated band along a wall or above the altar. What look like distinct pictures, when you ‘read’ them one after the other, in fact tell a complete story.

The debates in Luke 20 are just like that, and it will help us to understand this one if we see where it comes in the sequence (which Luke has, most likely, drawn from Mark, though he has made his own editorial changes on the way)...
