who deny a resurrection, came to Teacher, Moses wrote for us, that if a brother of any one dies, leaving a wife who may be childless, the brother sur- viving shall marry the widow, and procure issue for his brother.? Now there were seven brothers, the first of whom, having taken a wife, died childless. The second married the widow, and also died childless; the third married her, as likewise did the others; all the seven dying without leaving issue. Last of all, the woman also died. In the resurrection, there- fore, to which of them will she belong? for she was married to all 1`he children of this age marry

Then, when all the people were

For all the others, out of their super· 4 iluity, have contributed to the gifts for God; but she, out of her poverty, has contributed all she had to live upon. dbz §zsir1n:timt cf the bzmplz 3¤ret¤1h.
