To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It has been mentioned as an objection against a present resurrection, that, according to both Matthew and Mark, the Sadducees, in the well-known question which they put to our Lord, made use of the future tense, and asked, '^ whose wife shall she be ?'* And, according to Mark, they also used the future tense of the verb " rise,'' say- ing, "In the resurrection, therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife," &c. It is hence argued that the Sadducees had not understood the Saviour as teaching a re...surrection happening at death, but, on the contrary, one to happen at some future time ; therefore that the Christian resurrection is exclusively future. I reply, if the Sadducees had any such under- standing as to the time of the resurrection, they likely got it from the Pharisees. These are known to have held that, at least in some instances, the rising of the dead from among the dead was de- •laved for a considerable length of time. But al- lowing that Christ's questioners had really under- stood Him thus, are we quite sure that, with their stubborn prejudices, (not to mention their stupidi- ty,) they had understood the great Teacher aright?
