the Pharisees did not believe in the resurrection of Jesus then or now. The Jews(Israelites) are still looking for HIS comming. ANSWER: Yes, many Pharisees believed in the resurrection of Jesus. In fact, the the New Testament records a higer percentage of Pharisaic believers than any other 1st century Jewish sect. Paul and Nicodemus where Pharisees. Also the Jerusalem council in Acts makes mention of Pharisees that believed. The Old Testament says;

; "They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased they shall not rise." Isaiah 26:4. In the First Century BC, there were debates between the Pharisees who believed in the future Resurrection, and the Sadducees who did not. The Sadducees, politically powerful religious leaders, took a literal view of the Torah, rejecting the Pharisees' oral law, afterlife, angels, and demons.[2] The Pharisees, whose views became Rabbinic Judaism, eventually won (or at least survived) this debate.

Jesus enemies tried to trick Jesus by asking him difficult questions How did Jesus respond to this question The Question About The Resurrection?

I'm not sure, but I know that the one about who was his neighboor was the Samaritan on the roadThe guys asking the question were Sadducees who believed that there is no resurrection. The trick question concerned the law of Moses regarding a widow with no children. In their scenario, a woman is widowed seven times and the question was which of the seven would be her husband at the resurrection. Jesus' reply was that no one is married at the resurrection, all are like angels, and that regarding the resurrection of the seven husbands, God is the God of the living, not of the dead. The Sadducees apparently had no reply.

What were the Sadducees trying to do in questioning Jesus about the woman marrying the seven different brothers?

Believing themselves knowledgeable of the Scriptures, yet, the Sadducees didn't believe in the "resurrection." In Matthew 22, they were trying to create a confusing imaginary future scenario regarding the "alleged" resurrection, that would stump Jesus [thus, trying to silence Him].But, instead of arguing with the Sadducees over vain philosophical points... Jesus silenced them by pointing out their ignorance of the Scriptures:"...'YOUR PROBLEM IS that YOU DON'T KNOW THE SCRIPTURES, and YOU DON'T KNOW THE POWER OF GOD...'" (Matt.22:29 NLT New Living Translation)
