Paying Taxes to Caesar
Mark 12:13-17
13
And they sent vnto him certaine of the Pharises, and of ye Herodians that they might take him in his talke.
14
And when they came, they saide vnto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou considerest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God truely, Is it lawfull to giue tribute to Cesar, or not?
15
Should we giue it, or should we not giue it? but he knew their hypocrisie, and said vnto them, Why tempt ye me? Bring me a peny, that I may see it.
16
So they brought it, and he said vnto them, Whose is this image and superscription? and they said vnto him, Cesars.
17
Then Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Giue to Cesar the things that are Cesars, and to God, those that are Gods: and they marueiled at him.
