In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her as wife.
All Commentaries on Mark 12:23 Go To Mark 12
Tertullian of Carthage
AD 220
To Christians, after their departure from this world, no restoration of the carnal aspect of marriage is promised in the day of the resurrection, translated as they will be into the condition and sanctity of angels. In the day of resurrection no dilemma arising from sexual jealousy will injure any of her so many husbands, even in the case of her whom they chose to represent as having been married to seven brothers successively.
