Part of life is preparing for death, and part of preparing for death is preparing for life after death. Some cynics say that religion is a crutch for people who fear death. That may sometimes be the case, but it certainly does not apply to those who study Torah. Another sect of Judaism from the days of the apostles disagreed. They were called the Pharisees. They read the same Torah as the Sadducees, but came to a different conclusion. https://www.lojs.org/this-weeks-reading-12/
