“Therefore, in the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be? For all seven had her as wife.”
Mark 12:23 NKJV
When they tried to trap Jesus in this chapter they used political hot buttons and wild hypothetical arguments. Neither one tripped Jesus up.
I like this passage because it reminds me of today. The search for truth takes a detour through political issues. It finds itself snarled up in wild hypothetical situations. The goal of either of these is rarely to find truth. The goal is usually to confuse and contort things to my way of seeing.
Truth is not a commodity auctioned off to the highest bidder.
Jesus, Give me eyes to see and a heart to understand Your truth. Amen.
