Exegesis
The verse opens with the prepositional phrase peri de tōn nekrōn {περὶ δὲ τῶν νεκρῶν | perì dè tōn nekrôn} “but concerning the dead,” which marks a topical shift and introduces the subject of resurrection.
In context — Mark 12:26
But concerning the dead, that they are raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, at the passage about the bush, how God spoke to him, saying, “I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob”?
