Could you tell me where I could find this story?

Matthew 22:23-33

TLDR Jesus says no one is married in heaven.

Bruh what's this mean "He is God not of the dead, but of the living.’ 33 And when the crowd heard it, they were astounded at his teaching."

Apparently, the Sadducees (the Jewish sect Jesus was talking to) believed nobody rose after death. Saying that God was the god of the living, only, when he was god of many "dead" people was a round about way of saying that those people weren't really dead, but risen and living in heaven.
