16The Law and the prophets sufficed until the time of John. Since then the good news of the kingdom of God has been told, and everybody has been forcing their way into it.
17It would be easier for the heavens and the earth to disappear than for one stroke of a letter in the Law to be lost.
18Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman is an adulterer, and the man who marries a divorced woman is an adulterer.
19There was once a rich man, who dressed in purple robes and fine linen, and feasted every day in great splendour.
20Near his gateway there had been laid a beggar named Lazarus, who was covered with sores,
21and who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22After a time the beggar died, and was taken by the angels to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.
23In Hades he looked up in his torment, and saw Abraham at a distance and Lazarus at his side.
