Footnotes
- 85 Grk “But that the dead are raised even Moses revealed.”
- 86 See Exod 3:6. Jesus used a common form of rabbinic citation here to refer to the passage in question.
- 87 A quotation from Exod 3:6.
- 88 He is not God of the dead but of the living. Jesus’ point was that if God could identify himself as God of the three old patriarchs, then they must still be alive when God spoke to Moses; and so they must be raised.
- 89 On this syntax, see §192. The point is that all live “to” God or “before” God.

Moses even indicated in the passage about the burning bush that the dead are raised, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. He is not the God of the dead but of the living, because all are living to him.”

NLTNew Living Translation
“But now, as to whether the dead will be raised—even Moses proved this when he wrote about the burning bush. Long after Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had died, he referred to the Lord as ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ So he is the God of the living, not the dead, for they are all alive to him.”
