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.
In context — Mark 12:25
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.
