Mateus 22:22 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 22:22

When they had heard these words
This answer returned unto them, this advice which was given them, which they could not gainsay or deny to be good,

they marvelled:
were amazed and astonished, at his prudence and wisdom, in answering them, in such an unexpected and cautious manner:

they left him:
being silenced, confounded, and disappointed:

and went their way:
not being able to get any advantage against him, neither to bring him into contempt with the people, and alienate their affections from him; nor to charge him with sedition or treason to the Roman governor; and so had but a very indifferent account of their success, to report to them that sent them.

Mateus 22:22 In-Context

20 e ele lhes perguntou: “De quem é esta imagem e esta inscrição?”
21 “De César”, responderam eles.E ele lhes disse: “Então, deem a César o que é de César e a Deus o que é de Deus”.
22 Ao ouvirem isso, eles ficaram admirados; e, deixando-o, retiraram-se.
23 Naquele mesmo dia, os saduceus, que dizem que não há ressurreição, aproximaram-se dele com a seguinte questão:
24 “Mestre, Moisés disse que, se um homem morrer sem deixar filhos, seu irmão deverá casar-se com a viúva e dar-lhe descendência.
