Matthew 22:23-33
The same day Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no resurrection, and they asked him a question,saying,“ Teacher, Moses said,‘ If a man dies having no children, his brother must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.’Now there were seven brothers among us. The first married and died, and having no offspring left his wife to his brother.So too the second and third, down to the seventh.After them all, the woman died.In the resurrection, therefore, of the seven, whose wife will she be? For they all had her.”But Jesus answered them,“ You are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God.For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.And as for the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said to you by God:‘ I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not God of the dead, but of the living.”And when the crowd heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.

And as they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,greatly annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

1 Corinthians 15 13-1 Corinthians 15 18
But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified about God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised.For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised.And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

who have swerved from the truth, saying that the resurrection has already happened. They are upsetting the faith of some.

Acts 23:6-9
Now when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council,“ Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. It is with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.”And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all.Then a great clamor arose, and some of the scribes of the Pharisees’ party stood up and contended sharply,“ We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit or an angel spoke to him?”

Luke 20:27-40
There came to him some Sadducees, those who deny that there is a resurrection,and they asked him a question, saying,“ Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies, having a wife but no children, the man must take the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.Now there were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died without children.And the secondand the third took her, and likewise all seven left no children and died.Afterward the woman also died.In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife will the woman be? For the seven had her as wife.”And Jesus said to them,“ The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage,but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and to the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage,for they cannot die anymore, because they are equal to angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to him.”Then some of the scribes answered,“ Teacher, you have spoken well.”For they no longer dared to ask him any question.
