Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”

Luke 20:39 · BSB

Luke 20:39 in context

The verses around it, from Luke 20.

35 But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage.

36 In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God.

37 Even Moses demonstrates that the dead are raised, in the passage about the burning bush. For he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’

38 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”

39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”

40 And they did not dare to question Him any further.

41 Then Jesus declared, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?

42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand

43 until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
