This from Matthew
22:15-22 (New
International Version )
"Then the Pharisees went out and laid plans to trap him in his words.
They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians.
·
Rabbi,
they said, we know that you are a man of integrity
·
and that
you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.
·
You
aren't swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are.
·
Tell us
then, what is your opinion?
·
Is it
right to pay the imperial tax to Caesar or not?
But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said,
·
You
hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me?
·
Show me
the coin used for paying the tax.
They brought him a denarius, 20 and he asked them,
·
Whose
image is this?
·
And
whose inscription?
Caesar's, they replied.
Then he said to them,
·
So give
back to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.
When they heard this, they were amazed. So they left him
and went away. "
