But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world<\/strong>,…. The world to come, eternal life and happiness; not by their own works and merits, but through the blood, sacrifice, and righteousness of the Messiah;<\/p>\n and the resurrection from the dead<\/strong>; that is, the first resurrection, the resurrection unto life, which only the dead in Christ will enjoy; otherwise all will be raised: but some to the resurrection of damnation:<\/p>\n these neither marry, nor are given in marriage<\/strong>; there will be no need of any such practice, for the reasons that follow.<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1) “But they which shall be accounted worthy,” <\/strong>(hoi de kataksiothentes) “However the ones who are calculated or counted to be worthy,” you all err, being ignorant of the Scriptures, concerning the redeemed hereafter, Mat 22:29<\/span>; Mar 12:24<\/span>.<\/p>\n 2) “To obtain that world,” <\/strong>(tou aionos ekeionu tuchein) “To obtain of that age to come,” those who are saved and shall be in the world to come, Mar 12:24<\/span>; Mat 22:29<\/span>. The one of the just, at the first <\/strong>resurrection, the “resurrection of the just,” Luk 14:14<\/span>; Job 19:25<\/span>.<\/p>\n 3) “And the resurrection from the dead,” <\/strong>(kai tes anastaseos tes ek nekron) “Even the resurrection out of or from among the dead corpses,” out of the tombs, to which all shall come, Joh 5:28-29<\/span>; Mat 22:30<\/span>; Mar 12:25<\/span>; Php_3:11; Act 24:15<\/span>. The inference is that some of the dead (the wicked) will not be raised at that time as these are raised “from among the dead.”<\/p>\n 4) “Neither marry nor are given in marriage:” <\/strong>(oute gamousin oute gamizontai) “They neither marry nor are they given in marriage,” in a marriage state or condition, in that age; Mat 22:30<\/span>; Mar 12:25<\/span>. This refers to the first resurrection, that of the just, 1Co 15:22<\/span>; Luk 14:14<\/span>; Job 19:25<\/span>; 1Co 15:22<\/span>.<\/p>\n (35) They which shall be accounted worthy.<\/strong>Another word common to St. Luke and St. Paul (2Th. 1:5<\/span>), and to them only in the New Testament.<\/p>\n 35<\/strong>. <\/strong> They which shall be accounted worthy<\/em> From the words accounted worthy, <\/em> some draw the inference that the resurrection is conditional and partial; that it is limited to the worthy, <\/em> while the wicked are left in perpetual extinction. It is an unwarranted conclusion. For, 1. The Greek word here rendered accounted worthy <\/em> is often elegantly put for equum censetur, it is thought proper, <\/em> or it seems good; good, <\/em> that is, in the present case, to the Divine Mind. The meaning then would be: Those who by the Divine will shall attain the resurrection. <\/em> Their resurrection would be not dependent upon personal worthiness, but upon God’s plan; whether of a part or the whole. 2. As the question of the Sadducees, (briefly feigning to be orthodox,) which Christ here answers, regarded solely the children of Abraham, who were assumed to be of course heirs of the blessed <\/em> resurrection, it is of the blessed resurrection, or the blessed side of the resurrection, only, that Jesus now speaks, to which the worthy <\/em> alone do in fact attain. In the same manner Paul in 1 Corinthians 15<\/span>, as writing for the Christian alone, describes only the glorious resurrection. <\/em> In neither case is it implied that there is not also, and at the same time, a resurrection of the unjust, <\/em> (Act 24:15<\/span>,) or resurrection of damnation, Joh 5:29<\/span><\/em>. <\/p>\n Resurrection from the dead<\/em> Literally, resurrection from dead. <\/em> There is apparently a difference in meaning between the three phrases, resurrection of <\/em> the dead, resurrection from <\/em> the dead, and resurrection from dead, <\/em> without the article. Says Winer, (Gram. of N.T., vol. ii, p. 135,) “ [dead, without the article] signifies dead persons, Luk 7:22<\/span>; 1Co 15:15 ; 1Co 15:29<\/span>; 1Co 15:32<\/span>, etc.; but , the dead <\/em> as a definite multitude.” Resurrection of the <\/em> dead would signify the resurrection of the totality of the race. The resurrection from the dead <\/em> would signify the resurrection of only a part from <\/em> the whole. The resurrection from dead <\/em> may be a resurrection of persons from being dead. It is a becoming alive <\/em> from dead<\/em>. The same persons from their dead selves rise into living; as the phoenix has a resurrection from <\/em> her own ashes, her ashes composing her risen self. There are thirty-four passages in the New Testament where the preposition , from <\/em> or out from, <\/em> is used before dead <\/em> without the article; and four in which it is used with the article, namely, Eph 5:14<\/span>; Col 1:18<\/span>; Col 2:12<\/span>; Rev 1:5<\/span>. With the preposition , there are four instances; in all which, with a single exception, (Luk 16:30<\/span>,) the article is used. The result is, that the great mass of passages are resurrection from dead <\/em> persons. In a resurrection from dead, <\/em> there may or may not be additional dead who do not rise. In Rom 11:15<\/span>, life from dead <\/em> is life from their own dead selves; for Israel is held as a one historical race, which as a unit dies and rises again. The casting away <\/em> and recovering <\/em> is of the same conceptual Israel existing through ages. So also in Rom 6:13<\/span>, Christians are to yield themselves, as , from dead living. <\/em> In the whole passage the contrast is between themselves dead and themselves alive; not between themselves alive and others dead. The phrase does not therefore decide whether a general or a partial resurrection takes place; but whether it is a partial or a universal resurrection, it may be a resurrection from their own previous dead selves.<\/p>\n 29 There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n 30 And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n 31 And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n 32 Last of all the woman died also.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n 33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n 34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n 35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: <\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Ver. 35. Nor are given in marriage<\/strong> ] Hence some collect, that the difference of sexes shall continue after the resurrection: wherefore else should our Saviour say, that they shall then neither marry nor be given in marriage? Sed hic<\/em> . Haymo is over confident, I suppose, in that gloss he gives here, Quod viri in suo sexu resurgent, feminae in sexu muliebri. Erunt habentes membra genitalia, non autem voluntatem coeundi.<\/em> <\/p>\n Luk 20:35<\/span> . , etc., those deemed worthy to attain that world. The thought could have been expressed without , for which accordingly there is no equivalent in the Vulgate: “qui digni habebuntur seculo illo,” on which account Pricaeus thinks it should be left out of the Greek text. But the use of this verb, even when it seems but an elegant superfluity, is common in Greek. Examples in Bornemann.<\/p>\n obtain = attain to. <\/p>\n the dead = dead people: i.e. leaving them for a subsequent resurrection. No Art. See App-139. <\/p>\n Luk 20:35. , who are accounted worthy) Truly a great dignity conferred. So ch. Luk 21:36 [ , that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things-and to stand before the Son of man].- , , that world, and the resurrection) Therefore even before the resurrection an entrance is given into that world.- , out from the dead) All shall rise again; but the godly shall rise again out from among the ungodly.[217] As to these latter, there is not preached and declared the resurrection, but a more profound death of the soul conjoined with the body. So Act 4:2.[218]<\/p>\n [217] In reference to which fact, the term is used by Paul (not merely ), Php 3:11, to express his great hope.-E. and T.<\/p>\n [218] . However the word resurrection, , is applied to the unjust as well as to the just, Act 24:15, though not with the addition, , out from the dead.-E. and T.<\/p>\n accounted: Luk 21:36, Act 5:41, 2Th 1:5, Rev 3:4 <\/p>\n to: Dan 12:2, Dan 12:3, Joh 5:29, Act 24:15, Heb 11:35 <\/p>\n neither: Mat 22:29, Mar 12:24 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Zec 3:7 – I will Mat 10:37 – not Mat 22:8 – but Mar 12:25 – but Luk 7:4 – worthy Luk 14:14 – the resurrection 1Co 15:42 – it is Phi 3:11 – attain<\/p>\n But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world,….
