Lucas 20:23 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:23

with this ensnaring question.

Lucas 20:23 In-Context

21 —Maestro —dijeron los espías—, sabemos que lo que dices y enseñas es correcto. No juzgas por las apariencias, sino que de verdad enseñas el camino de Dios.
22 ¿Nos está permitido pagar impuestos al césar o no?
23 Pero Jesús, dándose cuenta de sus malas intenciones, replicó:
24 —Muéstrenme una moneda romana. ¿De quién son esta imagen y esta inscripción?—Del césar —contestaron.
25 —Entonces denle al césar lo que es del césar, y a Dios lo que es de Dios.
