Old Testament

Matthew 22:15-22
Paying Taxes to Caesar
15Then the Pharisees went out and plotted together how to trap him in his words. 16They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians. “Teacher,” they said, “we know that you are truthful and teach the way of God in accord with the truth. You are not concerned about gaining anyone's approval because you are not swayed by appearances. 17So tell us, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
18But Jesus knew their evil purpose and said, “Why are you testing me, you hypocrites? 19Show me the coin used for the tax.”
They brought him a denarius.
20He asked them, “Whose image and inscription is this?”
21“Caesar's,” they replied to him.
Then he said to them, “Therefore give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
22When they heard this, they were amazed. Then they left him and went away.
