Luke 20:37-39
Easy-to-Read Version
37 Moses clearly showed that people are raised from death. When Moses wrote about the burning bush,[a] he said that the Lord is ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’[b] 38 So they were not still dead, because he is the God only of living people. Yes, to God they are all still living.”
39 Some of the teachers of the law said, “Teacher, your answer was very good.”
