New Testament

Matthew 22:17-26 Common English Bible (CEB)

17. So tell us what you think: Does the Law allow people to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

18. Knowing their evil motives, Jesus replied, "Why do you test me, you hypocrites?

19. Show me the coin used to pay the tax." And they brought him a denarion.

20. "Whose image and inscription is this?" he asked.

21. "Caesar’s," they replied. Then he said, "Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God."

22. When they heard this they were astonished, and they departed.

23. That same day Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came to Jesus.

24. They asked, "Teacher, Moses said, If a man who doesn’t have children dies, his brother must marry his wife and produce children for his brother.

25. Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married, then died. Because he had no children he left his widow to his brother.

26. The same thing happened with the second brother and the third, and in fact with all seven brothers.
