16
He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.
17
But he looked upon them, and said,
What then is this that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner?
18
Every one that falleth on that stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
19
And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he spake this parable against them.
20
And they watched him, and sent forth spies, who feigned themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
21
And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and acceptest not the person [of any], but of a truth teachest the way of God:
22
Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
23
But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them,
24
Show me a denarius. Whose image and superscription hath it? And they said, Caesar's.
25
And he said unto them,
Then render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's.
26
And they were not able to take hold of the saying before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
27
And there came to him certain of the Sadducees, they that say that there is no resurrection;
28
and they asked him, saying, Teacher, Moses wrote unto us, that if a man's brother die, having a wife, and he be childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
29
There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died childless;
31
and the third took her; and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.
32
Afterward the woman also died.
33
In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife.
34
And Jesus said unto them,
The sons of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
35
but they that are accounted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
36
for neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
