    HO-tan gar ek ne-KRÔN a-na-STÔ-sin OU-te ga-MOU-sin OU-te ga-MI-dzo-ntai al EI-sin hôs AN-ge-loi en tois ou-ra-NOIS

Exegesis

The verse begins with the temporal clause hotan gar ek nekrōn anastōsin {ὅταν γὰρ ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῶσιν | hó-tan gar ek ne-krōn a-nas-tô-sin} where hotan introduces an indefinite temporal condition and gar links this teaching to Jesus’ argument about resurrection.

The prepositional phrase ek nekrōn {ἐκ νεκρῶν | ek ne-krōn} idiomatically expresses rising from the dead.

For when they rise from the dead, they do not marry and they are not given in marriage, but they are like angels in the heavens.
