The Pharisees: Is It Lawful to Pay Taxes to Caesar?

15 ^aThen the Pharisees went and plotted how they might entangle Him in His talk.

16 And they sent to Him their disciples with the ^aHerodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are true, and teach the way of God in truth; nor do You care about anyone, for You do not¹ regard the person of men.

17 Tell us, therefore, what do You think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”

18 But Jesus¹ perceived their wickedness, and said, “Why do you test Me, you hypocrites?
