Mark 12:13-17
Read Mark 12 in full →Taxes to Caesar
13aThen they *sent some of the Pharisees and bHerodians to Him in order to ctrap Him in a statement. 14And they *came and *said to Him, “Teacher, we know that You are truthful and 1defer to no one; for You are not partial to any, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it 2lawful to pay a tax to Caesar, or not? 15“Shall we pay or shall we not pay?” But He, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a 1denarius to look at.” 16And they brought one. And He *said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” And they said to Him, “Caesar’s.” 17And Jesus said to them, “aRender to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” And they 1were amazed at Him.
