Mark 12:12

12 And they sought to hold him, and they dreaded the people; for they knew that to them he said this parable; and they left him, and they went away.

Mark 12:12 In-Context

10 Whether ye have not read this scripture, The stone which the builders have despised, this is made into the head of the corner?
11 This thing is done of the Lord, and it is wonderful in our eyes.
12 And they sought to hold him, and they dreaded the people; for they knew that to them he said this parable; and they left him, and they went away.
13 And they sent to him [And they send to him] some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to take him in word.
14 Which came, and said to him [Which coming say to him], Master, we know that thou art soothfast, and reckest not of any man; for neither thou beholdest into the face of any man, but thou teachest the way of God in truth. Is it leaveful that tribute be given to the emperor [Is it leaveful to give tribute to Caesar], or we shall not give?
