Jesus

Then Iesus answered, and spake vnto them againe in parables, saying,

Then went the Pharises and tooke counsell how they might tangle him in talke.

And they sent vnto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we knowe that thou art true, and teachest the way of God truely, neither carest for any man: for thou considerest not the person of men.

Tell vs therefore, how thinkest thou? Is it lawfull to giue tribute vnto Cesar, or not?

But Iesus perceiued their wickednes, and sayd, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?

Shewe me the tribute money. And they brought him a peny.

And he sayde vnto them, Whose is this image and superscription?

They sayd vnto him, Cesars. Then sayd he vnto them, Giue therefore to Cesar, the things which are Cesars, and giue vnto God, those things which are Gods.

And when they heard it, they marueiled, and left him, and went their way.

The same day the Sadduces came to him (which say that there is no resurrection) and asked him,

Then Iesus answered, and sayd vnto them, Ye are deceiued, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

And when the multitude heard it, they were astonied at his doctrine.

But when the Pharises had heard, that he had put the Sadduces to silence, they assembled together.

And one of them, which was an expounder of the Lawe, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

Iesus sayd to him, Thou shalt loue the Lord thy God with all thine heart, with all thy soule, and with all thy minde.

While the Pharises were gathered together, Iesus asked them,

Saying, What thinke ye of Christ? whose sonne is he? They sayd vnto him, Dauids.

He sayd vnto them, How then doeth Dauid in spirit call him Lord, saying,

The Lord sayd to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footestoole?

If then Dauid call him Lord, howe is he his sonne?

And none could answere him a worde, neither durst any from that day foorth aske him any moe questions.

Then spake Iesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,

But be not ye called, Rabbi: for one is your doctour, to wit, Christ, and all ye are brethren.

And call no man your father vpon the earth: for there is but one, your father which is in heauen.

Be not called doctours: for one is your doctour, euen Christ.
