Matthew 22:15-22
Read Matthew 22 in full →Taxes to Caesar
15aThen the Pharisees went and took counsel together about how they might trap Him 1in what He said. 16And they *sent their disciples to Him, along with the aHerodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are truthful and teach the way of God in truth, and 1defer to no one; for You are not partial to any. 17“Therefore, tell us, what do You think? Is it 1lawful to give a atax to bCaesar, or not?” 18But Jesus, knowing their wickedness, said, “Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites? 19“Show Me the acoin used for the tax.” And they brought Him a 1denarius. 20And He *said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” 21They *said to Him, “Caesar’s.” Then He *said to them, “aTherefore, render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God the things that are God’s.” 22And hearing this, they marveled, and aleaving Him, they went away.
