So much happens in the week between Jesus’ triumphal entry and his death. This time we meet the Sadducees who come with a scenario meant to trap Jesus, this time religiously. The Phari-
sees and Herodians had been silenced with a political question to trap Jesus, now it’s the turn of another group to try. The Sadducees thought they were smart, but Jesus proves them otherwise  as he exposes their misunderstanding about the resurrection and life after death. The key thought is that resurrection is not the restoration of life as we know it; it is the entrance into a new life that is different. We learn this, and more, from Jesus encounter with this group called the Sadducees.
