Jesus

And Jesus answering, spoke again in parables to them, saying:

Then the Pharisees going, consulted among themselves how to insnare him in his speech.

And they sent to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker and teachest the way of God in truth. Neither carest thou for any man: for thou dost not regard the person of men.

Tell us therefore what dost thou think? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

But Jesus knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you tempt me, ye hypocrites?

Shew me the coin of the tribute. And they offered him a penny.

And Jesus saith to them: Whose image and inscription is this?

They say to him: Caesar's. Then he saith to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God, the things that are God's.

And hearing this, they wondered and, leaving him, went their ways.

That day there came to him the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection; and asked him,

And Jesus answering, said to them: You err, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.

And the multitudes hearing it were in admiration at his doctrine.

But the Pharisees, hearing that he had silenced the Sadducees, came together.

And one of them, a doctor of the law, asked him, tempting him:

Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart and with thy whole soul and with thy whole mind.

And the Pharisees being gathered together, Jesus asked them,

Saying: What think you of Christ? Whose son is he? They say to him: David's.

He saith to them: How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying:

The Lord said to my Lord: Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?

If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

And no man was able to answer him a word: neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.

Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples,

But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master: and all you are brethren.

And call none your father upon earth; for one is your father, who is in heaven.

Neither be ye called masters: for one is your master, Christ.
