Mk 12:27a ... "Not is (he) (the) God of dead (ones), ..."

Verse 27 has 3 phrases and 8 words. The 1st phrase has these 4 dialog words, ... Ouk estin theos nekrōn ["Not is (he) (the) God of dead (ones), ..."].

The 4 dialog words are top down tangent to the body of Jesus and the Holy Spirit (triangle) holding God the Father. This diagram is hypothetical. The Sadducees say there is no resurrection, that there is no life after death. The diagram shows God the Father, the God of the Old Testament, is tangent to the seven dead Brothers and their dead Wife. That means God the Father is a God of the Dead. Jesus disputes this allegation in the next diagram.
