The Sadducees continue speaking and tell Jesus a story.

## There were seven brothers ##

This may have happened, but it is probably a story that they made up to test Jesus.

## died childless ##

"died without having any children" or "died, but did not have any children"

## the second as well ##

This can be translated as "the second married her and the same thing happened" or "the second brother married her and died without having any children."

## The third took her ##

"the third married her"

## likewise the seven also left no children, and died ##

This can be translated as "in the same way the rest of the seven brothers married her and had no children and died."

## In the resurrection ##

"when people are raised from the dead" or "when dead people will become alive again" (UDB). Some languages have a way of showing that the Sadducees did not believe that there would be a resurrection, such as "In the supposed resurrection" or "When dead people are supposedly raised from the dead."
