Luke 20:36-38
1599 Geneva Bible
36 For they can die no more, forasmuch as they are equal unto the Angels, and are the sons of God, since they are the [a]children of the resurrection.
37 And that the dead shall rise again, even (A)Moses showed it besides the bush, when he said, The Lord is the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 For he is not the God of the dead, but of them which live: for all [b]live unto him.

- Luke 20:36 That is, men partakers of the resurrection, for as we say truly, that they shall live indeed, which shall enjoy everlasting bliss, so do they rise indeed, which rise to life, though if this word resurrection, be taken generally, it belongeth also to the wicked which shall rise to condemnation, which is not properly life, but death.
- Luke 20:38 That is, before him: a notable saying, the godly do not die, though they die here on earth.
