Más tarde, ese mismo día, vinieron unos Saduceos a verlo. (Los saduceos son los que dicen que no hay resurrección.)

This verse describes the Sadducees coming to Jesus to challenge Him because they do not believe in resurrection. They are skeptical and want to test His knowledge on a topic related to Jewish law.

Explicado para niños

Imagine some grown-ups came to Jesus who didn't think people could come back to life after dying. It's like if you thought your toys couldn’t be fixed if broken, but Jesus knew better!
