in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven

David calls him Lord, how is he his son?
no one was able to answer him a word, nor from that day did anyone dare to ask him any more questions
Jesus asked them a question, saying, “What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?”
The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
until I put your enemies under your feet”
Jesus spoke to them in parables
a king who gave a wedding feast for his son
They will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them, for he is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with him are called and chosen and faithful.

“Sit at my right hand,

The LORD sends forth from Zion
your mighty scepter.
Rule in the midst of your enemies!
Your people will offer themselves freely
on the day of your power,
in holy garments;
from the womb of the morning,
the dew of your youth will be yours.
The LORD has sworn
and will not change his mind,

the marriage of the Lamb has come,
and his Bride has made herself ready;
it was granted her to clothe herself
with fine linen, bright and pure

‘If a man dies having no children, his brother must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.’
If brothers dwell together, and one of them dies and has no son, the wife of the dead man shall not be married outside the family to a stranger. Her husband’s brother shall go in to her and take her as his wife and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her.

sons of God. These have been identified as Sethites (the traditional Christian interpretation), as angels (the earliest Jewish interpretation; cf. Job 1:6), and as royal tyrannical successors to Lamech who gathered harems (proposed by rabbis of the second century A.D.). All three interpretations can be defended linguistically. The first interpretation best fits the immediate preceding context (a contrast of the curse-laden line of Cain with the godly line of Seth). If “sons of God” denotes Seth’s line, then “daughters of man” probably refers specifically to Cainite women. The intermarriage of the two lines easily explains why Noah is the sole righteous offspring of Seth after nine generations. Luke’s genealogy of Jesus provides a basis for understanding how Seth’s lineage may be viewed as “sons of God” (Luke 3:36–38). The second view has ancient support, but seems to contradict Jesus’ statement that angels do not marry (Mark 12:25) and does not explain why the focus is on mortals (v. 3) and the judgment on them (vv. 5–7). The third interpretation explains the phrase “any they chose” and matches the description of Lamech’s actions in 4:19–24 but lacks much ancient support and demands that “sons of God” refers to people who are anything but God-like.
