A New Kind of Existence
Commentators explain that the resurrection life is not a mere continuation of our earthly one. Jesus corrects the Sadducees' error of assuming earthly institutions like marriage would carry over. Instead, God's power will create a new, higher order of existence where marriage, which is tied to procreation and mortality, is no longer necessary. Our future life will be fundamentally different and superior.
