Psalm : Ps 122

R. To you, Lord, I lift up my eyes.

Of David

122:1 How I rejoiced when they said to me, ‘Let us go to the house of Yahweh!’

122:2 And now our feet are standing in your gateways, Jerusalem.

122:3 Jerusalem restored! The city, one united whole!

122:4 Here the tribes come up, the tribes of Yahweh, they come to praise Yahweh’s name, as he ordered Israel,

122:5 here where the tribunals of justice are, the royal tribunals of David.

122:6 Pray for peace in Jerusalem, ‘Prosperity to your houses!

122:7 Peace inside your city walls! Prosperity to your palaces!’

122:8 Since all are my brothers and friends, I say ‘Peace be with you!’

122:9 Since Yahweh our God lives here, I pray for your happiness.

Gospel : Mk 12, 18-27

The resurrection of the dead

12:18 Then some Sadducees – who deny that there is a resurrection – came to him and they put this question to him,

12:19 ‘Master, we have it from Moses in writing, if a man’s brother dies leaving a wife but no child, the man must marry the widow to raise up children for his brother.

12:20 Now there were seven brothers. The first married a wife and then died leaving no children.

12:21 The second married the widow, and he too died leaving no children; with the third it was the same,

12:22 and none of the seven left any children. Last of all the woman herself died.

12:23 Now at the resurrection, when they rise again, whose wife will she be, since she had been married to all seven?’

12:24 Jesus said to them, ‘Is not the reason why you go wrong, that you understand neither the scriptures nor the power of God?

12:25 For when they rise from the dead, men and women do not marry; no, they are like the angels in heaven.

12:26 Now about the dead rising again, have you never read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the Bush, how God spoke to him and said: I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?[*b]

12:27 He is God, not of the dead, but of the living. You are very much mistaken.’
