Even she couldn't escape what comes for everyone in the end.

📚 Historical Context

In the context of Matthew 22, Jesus is being questioned by the Sadducees, a Jewish sect that did not believe in the resurrection of the dead. They presented a hypothetical scenario based on the Old Testament law of levirate marriage, where a woman marries a series of brothers to produce an heir if the husbands die childless. This verse concludes their story, noting that the woman died last, as part of their challenge to Jesus about marital relationships in the afterlife.
