20One day as He was teaching the people in the temple complex and proclaiming the good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came upG2532G1096G1722G3391G1565G2250G846G1321G2992G1722G2411G2532G2097G749G2532G1122G2186G4862G4245
2and said to Him: "Tell us, by what authority are You doing these things? Who is it who gave You this authority?"G2532G2036G4314G846G3004G2036G2254G1722G4169G1849G4160G5023G2228G5101G2076G1325G4671G5026G1849
3He answered them, "I will also ask you a question. Tell Me,G1161G611G2036G4314G846G2504G2065G2504G2065G5209G1520G3056G2532G2036G3427
4was the baptism of John from heaven or from men?"G908G2491G2258G1537G3772G2228G1537G444
5They discussed it among themselves: "If we say, 'From heaven,' He will say, 'Why didn't you believe him?'G1161G4817G4314G1438G3004G3754G1437G2036G1537G3772G2046G1302G3767G4100G846G3756
6But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us, because they are convinced that John was a prophet."G1161G1437G2036G1537G444G3956G2992G2642G2248G1063G2076G3982G2491G1511G4396
7So they answered that they did not know its origin.G2532G611G1492G3361G1492G4159
8And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."G2532G2424G2036G846G3761G3004G1473G5213G1722G4169G1849G4160G5023
9Then He began to tell the people this parable: "A man planted a vineyard, leased it to tenant farmers, and went away for a long time.G1161G756G3004G4314G2992G5026G3850G5100G444G5452G290G2532G1554G846G1554G1092G2532G589G2425G5550
10At harvest time he sent a slave to the farmers so that they might give him some fruit from the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty-handed.G2532G1722G2540G649G1401G4314G1092G2443G1325G846G575G2590G290G1161G1092G1194G846G1821G2756
11He sent yet another slave, but they beat that one too, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.G2532G4369G3992G2087G1401G1161G1194G2548G2532G818G1821G2756
12And he sent yet a third, but they wounded this one too and threw him out.G2532G4369G3992G5154G1161G5135G5126G2532G1544
13"Then the owner of the vineyard said, 'What should I do? I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.'G1161G2036G2962G290G5101G4160G3992G3450G27G5207G2481G1788G1492G5126
14"But when the tenant farmers saw him, they discussed it among themselves and said, 'This is the heir. Let's kill him, so the inheritance will be ours!'G1161G1092G1492G846G1260G4314G1438G3004G3778G2076G2818G1205G615G846G2443G2817G1096G2257
15So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. "Therefore, what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?G2532G1544G846G1854G290G615G5101G3767G4160G2962G290G4160G846
16He will come and destroy those farmers and give the vineyard to others." But when they heard this they said, "No— never!"G2064G2532G622G5128G1092G2532G1325G290G243G1161G191G2036G3361G1096
17But He looked at them and said, "Then what is the meaning of this Scripture: The stone that the builders rejected— this has become the cornerstone?G1161G1689G846G2036G5101G2076G5124G3767G1125G3037G3739G3618G593G3778G1096G2776G1519G1137
18Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, and if it falls on anyone, it will grind him to powder!"G3956G4098G1909G1565G3037G4917G1161G1909G3739G302G4098G3039G846G3039
19Then the scribes and the chief priests looked for a way to get their hands on Him that very hour, because they knew He had told this parable against them, but they feared the people.G2532G749G2532G1122G1722G846G5610G2212G1911G5495G1909G846G2532G5399G2992G1063G1097G3754G2036G5026G3850G4314G846
20They watched closely and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, so they could catch Him in what He said, to hand Him over to the governor's rule and authority.G2532G3906G649G1455G5271G1511G1438G1342G2443G1949G846G3056G1519G3860G846G746G2532G1849G2232
21They questioned Him, "Teacher, we know that You speak and teach correctly, and You don't show partiality, but teach truthfully the way of God.G2532G1905G846G3004G1320G1492G3754G3004G2532G1321G3723G2532G3756G2983G4383G235G1321G3598G2316G225G1909
22Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"G1832G2254G1325G5411G2541G2228G3756
23But detecting their craftiness, He said to them,G1161G2657G846G3834G2036G4314G846G5101G3985G3165
24"Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription does it have?" "Caesar's," they said.G1925G3427G1220G5101G1504G2532G1923G2192G611G1161G2036G2541
25"Well then," He told them, "give back to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's."G1161G2036G846G591G5106G2541G3588G2541G2532G2316G3588G2316
26They were not able to catch Him in what He said in public, and being amazed at His answer, they became silent.G2532G2480G3756G1949G846G4487G1726G2992G2532G2296G1909G846G612G4601
27Some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came up and questioned Him:G1161G4334G5100G4523G3588G483G1511G3361G386G1905G846
28"Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother has a wife, and dies childless, his brother should take the wife and produce offspring for his brother.G3004G1320G3475G1125G2254G1437G5100G80G599G2192G1135G2532G3778G599G815G2443G846G80G2983G1135G2532G1817G4690G846G80
29Now there were seven brothers. The first took a wife and died without children.G2258G3767G2033G80G2532G4413G2983G1135G599G815
30Also the secondG2532G1208G2983G1135G2532G3778G599G815
31and the third took her. In the same way, all seven died and left no children.G2532G5154G2983G846G1161G5615G2033G2532G2641G3756G5043G2532G599
32Finally, the woman died too.G1161G5305G3956G1135G599G2532
33Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife will the woman be? For all seven had married her."G3767G1722G386G5101G1135G846G1096G1063G2033G2192G846G1135
34Jesus told them, "The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage.G2532G2424G611G2036G846G5207G5127G165G1060G2532G1548
35But those who are counted worthy to take part in that age and in the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage.G1161G2661G5177G1565G165G2532G386G1537G3498G3777G1060G3777G1548
36For they cannot die anymore, because they are like angels and are sons of God, since they are sons of the resurrection.G3777G1063G1410G599G2089G1063G1526G2465G2532G1526G5207G2316G5607G5207G386
37Moses even indicated [in the passage] about the burning bush that the dead are raised, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.G1161G3754G3498G1453G2532G3475G3377G1909G942G5613G3004G2962G2316G11G2532G2316G2464G2532G2316G2384
38He is not God of the dead but of the living, because all are living to Him."G1161G2076G3756G2316G3498G235G2198G1063G3956G2198G846
39Some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, You have spoken well."G1161G5100G1122G611G2036G1320G2573G2036
40And they no longer dared to ask Him anything.G1161G3765G5111G3765G1905G846G3762
41Then He said to them, "How can they say that the Messiah is the Son of David?G1161G2036G4314G846G4459G3004G5547G1511G1138G5207
42For David himself says in the Book of Psalms: The Lord declared to my Lord, 'Sit at My right handG2532G1138G846G3004G1722G976G5568G2962G2036G3450G2962G2521G1537G3450G1188
43until I make Your enemies Your footstool.'G2193G302G5087G4675G2190G4675G4228G5286
44David calls Him 'Lord'; how then can the Messiah be his Son?"G1138G3767G2564G846G2962G4459G2076G2532G846G5207
45While all the people were listening, He said to His disciples,G1161G191G3956G2992G2036G846G3101
46"Beware of the scribes, who want to go around in long robes and who love greetings in the marketplaces, the front seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets.G4337G575G1122G3588G2309G4043G1722G4749G2532G5368G783G1722G58G2532G4410G1722G4864G2532G4411G1722G1173
47They devour widows' houses and say long prayers just for show. These will receive greater punishment."G3739G2719G5503G3614G2532G4392G4336G3117G4336G3778G2983G4055G2917
