- Kapitel 20 -

(Matthew 21:23–27; Mark 11:27–33)
1
And it came to pass, on one of those days, as He is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came on [Him],
2
and spoke to Him, saying, “Tell us by what authority You do these things? Or who is he that gave to You this authority?”
3
And He answering said to them, “I will question youI alsoone thing, and tell Me:
4
the immersion of John, was it from Heaven, or from men?”
5
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we may say, From Heaven, He will say, Why, then, did you not believe him?
6
And if we may say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are having been persuaded John to be a prophet.”
7
And they answered that they did not know from where [it was],
8
and Jesus said to them, “Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.”

The Parable of the Wicked Tenants

(Matthew 21:33–46; Mark 12:1–12)
9
And He began to speak to the people this allegory: “A certain man planted a vineyard, and gave it out to farmers, and went abroad for a long time,
10
and at the season he sent a servant to the farmers, that they may give to him from the fruit of the vineyard, but the farmers having beat him, sent [him] away empty.
11
And he added to send another servant, and they also having beaten and dishonored that one, sent [him] away empty;
12
and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they cast out.
13
And the owner of the vineyard said, What will I do? I will send my son, the beloved, perhaps having seen this one, they will respect [him];
14
and having seen him, the farmers reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;
15
and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed [him]; what, then, will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16
He will come, and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” And having heard, they said, “Let it not be!”
17
And He, having looked on them, said, “What, then, is this that has been written: A stone that the builders rejected—this became head of a corner?
18
Everyone who has fallen on that stone will be broken, and on whom it may fall, it will crush him to pieces.”

Paying Taxes to Caesar

(Matthew 22:15–22; Mark 12:13–17)
19
And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him in that hour, and they feared the people, for they knew that He spoke this allegory against them.
20
And having watched [Him], they sent forth ones lying in wait, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of His word, to deliver Him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor,
21
and they questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, we have known that You say and teach correctly, and do not receive a person, but in truth teach the way of God.
22
Is it lawful to us to give tribute to Caesar or not?”
23
And He, having perceived their craftiness, said to them, “Why do you tempt Me?
24
Show Me a denarius; of whom does it have an image and inscription?” And they answering said, “Of Caesar”:
25
and He said to them, “Give back, therefore, the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God”;
26
and they were not able to take hold on His saying before the people, and having wondered at His answer, they were silent.

The Sadducees and the Resurrection

(Matthew 22:23–33; Mark 12:18–27)
27
And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a resurrection, having come near, questioned Him,
28
saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us if anyones brother may die, having a wife, and he may die childless—that his brother may take the wife, and may raise up seed to his brother.
29
There were, then, seven brothers, and the first having taken a wife, died childless,
30
and the second took the wife, and he died childless,
31
and the third took her, and in like manner also the seventhey left no children, and they died;
32
and last of all the woman also died:
33
in the resurrection, then, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.”
34
And Jesus answering said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage,
35
but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the resurrection that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage;
36
for neither are they able to die anymorefor they are like messengers—and they are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37
And that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the Bush, since he calls the LORD the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
38
and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.”
39
And certain of the scribes answering said, “Teacher, You said well”;
40
and they no longer dared question Him anything.

Whose Son Is the Christ?

(Matthew 22:41–46; Mark 12:35–37)
41
And He said to them, “How do they say the Christ is [the] son of David,
42
and David himself says in [the] Scroll of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, || Sit on My right hand,
43
Until I will make Your enemies Your footstool;
44
David, then, calls Him Lord, and how is He his son?”

Beware of the Scribes

(Mark 12:38–40)
45
And all the people hearing, He said to His disciples,
46
Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are cherishing salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches at the banquets,
47
who devour the houses of the widows, and make long prayers for a pretense, these will receive more abundant judgment.”
(Matthew 21:23–27; Mark 11:27–33)
1
On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the (a) priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
2
They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
3
He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4
the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?”
5
They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7
They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
8
Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

The Parable of the Wicked Tenants

(Matthew 21:33–46; Mark 12:1–12)
9
He began to tell the people this parable: “A (b) man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
10
At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.
11
He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12
He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
13
The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’
14
“But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’
15
Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16
He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”
17
But he looked at them and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone’? (c)
18
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”

Paying Taxes to Caesar

(Matthew 22:15–22; Mark 12:13–17)
19
The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the peoplefor they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
20
They watched him and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
21
They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
22
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23
But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
24
Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesars.”
25
He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
26
They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.

The Sadducees and the Resurrection

(Matthew 22:23–33; Mark 12:18–27)
27
Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28
They asked him, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a mans brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife and raise up children for his brother.
29
There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30
The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
31
The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32
Afterward the woman also died.
33
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
34
Jesus said to them, “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage.
35
But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage.
36
For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord ‘The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ (d)
38
Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”
39
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”
40
They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.

Whose Son Is the Christ?

(Matthew 22:41–46; Mark 12:35–37)
41
He said to them, “Why do they say that the Christ is David’s son?
42
David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
43
until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’ (e)
44
“David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”

Beware of the Scribes

(Mark 12:38–40)
45
In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46
“Beware of those scribes who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47
who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
