What did Jesus mean by the words, “You are mistaken, because you know neither the Scriptures( Matt 22:29,30)?

Question

What is contained in the Hebrew Scriptures that the Sadducees should have known about the resurrection and not marrying in it?

Nina..you are being disrespectful.continue this and you will be the first to be BLOCKED by me..Grow up.

Slayer, If Jesus was Jehovah then you overstepping the word of God by going against this Verse.
" (1 John 4:12) At no time has anyone beheld God. If we continue loving one another, God remains in us and his love is made perfect in us.

So are you saying that people looking at Jesus were looking at Jehovah..which is it, your thinking or the Bible verse above?

Robert, you Wrong. The words out of Jesus mouth proves you wrong.
Jesus says: “Stop clinging to me. For I have not yet ascended to the Father. But be on your way to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.’”( John 20: 17).. Was he Lying to Mary? Who is Jesus's God here?

Jesus Christ was baptized at the age of 30 by being immersed in water and when he came up out of the water, a voice from heaven said: “This is my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved.” (Matthew 3:17) That voice was God’s voice. On another occasion, in prayer to God, Jesus said: “Father, glorify your name.” And when Jesus had said that, God’s “voice came out of heaven: ‘I both glorified it and will glorify it again.’”—John 12:28
So was that Jesus speaking of Himself or what?

Answer 1

Well, reading on (v 31, 32) it shows Jesus talking about something from a source the Sadducees believed in- the Pentateuch (from the account of Moses and the burning bush)

"As regards the resurrection of the dead, did you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying,  ‘I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob’? He is the God, not of the dead, but of the living.”, which meant that in God's eyes Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are living because he knows he WILL resurrect them.

They thought they were smart by trying to trip Jesus up, but instead he showed them that actually they did not understand the Scriptures themselves.

Answer 2

So was that Jesus speaking of Himself or what?

>>>So are you saying that people looking at Jesus were looking at Jehovah..which is it, your thinking or the Bible verse above?
<<<

John 14
8Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

That's what Jesus said.
John 10
30I and my Father are one.

31Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

32Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

33The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

Jesus said if you are looking at him you are looking ath the Father (Jehovah.)

Isaiah prophesied that one day the everlasting Father, the Mighty God, would be born into the world as a baby boy.
Isa 9
6For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

7Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

There is only one God, one Lord.
Deut 6
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:

The Lord of glory took on human flesh and died on the cross
1 cor 2
7But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

8Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

It was the blood of God that was shed
Acts 20
28Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Jesus is the Almighty God, Jehovah.
Revelation 1
7Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

8I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

Edit: No one has ever seen God in all of his fullness. But we have seen his manifestations. He manifested himself as a pillar of cloud, pillar of fire, mana, and a figure on a throne. Seeing any of those is seeing God and if you read the Old Testament you find this:

Isaiah 6
1In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the LORD sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.

Did Isaiah see God or not? Yes, he did (and you will find other instances of people seeing God.) He just did not see all of God that there is to see and he did not see by his own human abilities.

God revealed himself to Isaiah, so Isaiah saw God. God has revealed himself to us by taking on humanity and walking amoung us. To look on Jesus is to look on God because Jesus Christ is the flesh of God, God revealed as a human being.

Answer 4

He was being an ***

Answer 5

The Sadducees accepted Torah but rejected Rabbinic Judaism and the writings of the Prophets . This is why they didn't believe in a resurrection(Isaiah 26:19 is very clear on this). Jesus used a passage from Torah (something they claimed to understand) to prove a resurrection. See verses 31-32.

Answer 6

",.....neither the Scriptures nor God's power."they were talking about the deceased wives.
Their question was---
verse 28.-"IN THE RESURRECTION,...to which will she be a wife?"

Jesus answered, ",..in the resurrected state,..they are as angels in heaven."

Answer 7

The same as the Jw who consistently deny Jesus is Jehovah.
Jw do not know their OT Scriptures too, else they would have accepted that the Lord Jesus Christ is indeed Jehovah.

Better than that, Jehovah in Isaiah 43 is the Lord Jesus speaking, being Jehovah's witnesses are in fact witnessing for the Lord Jehovah Jesus Christ! ! ! !

Answer 8

The Sadducees didn't believe in the resurrection (of all the saints), and so they asked a question to trick Jesus. They were referring to the Law that said that a man should marry his brother's widow to give her a son to carry on his brother's name. They made up a hypothetical story of a woman marrying a bunch of brothers in succession, then asking whose wife she'd be after she was resurrected. They were trying to prove Him wrong. But Jesus told them they were in error because they didn't understand what the resurrection was going to be like. After the resurrection, the earthly relationship of marriage won't be there, and so no one will rise again married to anyone. The Sadducees didn't understand this. (And that is why they were sad, you see?)

Answer 9

They didn't understand the scriptures regarding the resurrection

Matthew 22:31-33

But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.” And when the multitudes heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.

Answer 10

Its not that they did not know the scriptures, it's that they chose to put their own spin on them (look up Haggadah). As we have done today. It is very important that we study and that we learn how to study...if you need help email me at [e-mail]
