Luke 20

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 And it came about on one of those days, when he was teaching the people in the Temple and preaching the good news,

2 That the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people came to him and said, Make clear to us by what authority you do these things and who gave you this authority.

3 And in answer he said to them, I will put a question to you, and do you give me an answer:

4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven or of men?

5 And they said among themselves, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why did you not have faith in him?

6 But if we say, Of men; we will be stoned by the people, for they are certain that John was a prophet.

7 And they made answer that they had no idea where it came from.

8 And Jesus said, And I will not make clear to you by what authority I do these things.

9 And he gave the people this story: A man made a vine-garden and gave the use of it to some field-workers and went into another country for a long time.

10 And at the right time he sent a servant to the workers to get part of the fruit from the vines; but the workmen gave him blows and sent him away with nothing.

11 And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.

12 And he sent a third, and they gave him wounds and put him out.

13 And the lord of the garden said, What am I to do? I will send my dearly loved son; they may give respect to him.

14 But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.

15 And driving him out of the garden they put him to death. Now what will the lord do to these workmen?

16 He will come and put them to destruction and give the garden to others. And when he said this, they said, May it not be so.

17 But he, looking on them, said, Is it not in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has become the chief stone of the building?

18 Everyone falling on that stone will be broken, but the man on whom the stone comes down will be crushed to dust.

19 And the chief priests and the scribes made attempts to get their hands on him in that very hour; and they were in fear of the people, for they saw that he had made up this story against them.

20 And they kept watch on him, and sent out secret representatives, who were acting the part of good men, in order that they might get something from his words, on account of which they might give him up to the government and into the power of the ruler.

21 And they put a question to him, saying, Master, we are certain that your teaching and your words are right, and that you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God:

22 Is it right for us to make payment of taxes to Caesar or not?

23 But he saw through their trick and said to them,

24 Let me see a penny. Whose image and name are on it? And they said, Caesar's.

25 And he said, Then give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.

26 And they were not able to get anything from these words before the people: but they were full of wonder at his answer, and said nothing.

27 And some of the Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no coming back from the dead; and they said to him,

28 Master, Moses said that if a man's brother comes to his end, having a wife, but no children, his brother is to take the wife, and get a family for his brother.

29 Now there were seven brothers, and the first had a wife and came to his end, having no children;

30 And the second;

31 And the third took her; and in the same way, all the seven, without having any children, came to their end.

32 And last of all, the woman came to her end.

33 When they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for all the seven had her.

34 And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world are married and have wives;

35 But those to whom is given the reward of the world to come, and to come back from the dead, have no wives, and are not married;

36 And death has no more power over them, for they are equal to the angels, and are sons of God, being of those who will come back from the dead.

37 But even Moses made it clear that the dead come back to life, saying, in the story of the burning thorn-tree, The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

38 Now he is not the God of the dead but of the living: for all men are living to him.

39 And some of the scribes, in answer to this, said, Master, you have said well.

40 And they had fear of putting any more questions to him.

41 And he said to them, Why do they say that the Christ is the son of David?

42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Take your seat at my right hand,

43 Till I put under your feet all those who are against you.

44 David then gives him the name of Lord, so how is it possible for him to be his son?

45 And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,

46 Keep away from the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes, and to have words of respect said to them in the market-places, and to take the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;

47 Who take the property of widows and before the eyes of men make long prayers; they will get a greater punishment.

1 0 And it came about on one of the yamim Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was saying shiurim to HaAm (the People) in the Beis Hamikdash and was preaching the Besuras HaGeulah, the Rashei Hakohanim and the Sofrim with the Ziknei HaAm stood by;

2 They spoke, saying to him, Tell us by what shlita (authority) you do these things, or who is the one having given to you this shlita?

3 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, I will also confront you will a she’elah, and you tell me:

4 The tevilah of teshuva of Yochanan—was it from Shomayim or from Bnei Adam?

5 And they reasoned to themselves saying, If we say, from Shomayim, he will say, why did you not believe him?

6 But if we say, from Bnei Adam, HaAm (the People) all will subject us to sequilah (stoning), for HaAm Yisroel are all convinced that Yochanan is a navi.

7 And they answered that they did not have daas of the origin of the tevilah of teshuva of Yochanan.

8 And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Neither am I telling you by what shlita (authority) I do these things.

9 And he began to tell this mashal to HaAm Yisroel. A certain ish planted a kerem and leased it to koremim (vine keepers) and he went away for a long time. [YESHAYAH 5:1-7]

10 And in season he sent to the koremim (vine keepers) an eved (servant) that from the pri of the kerem they will give to him. But the koremim (vine keepers) sent the eved away empty, having beaten him.

11 And he proceeded to send another eved. But him also, when they had beaten and dishonored him, they sent him away empty.

12 And he proceeded to send an eved shlishi (a third servant). And also this one, having wounded, they threw out.

13 And the Adon of the kerem, said, What should I do? I will send Beni Ahuvi. Perhaps this one they will respect.

14 But having seen him, the koremim (vine keepers) were reasoning with one another saying, This one is the Bechor, the heir. Let us kill him, that the bechorah may become ours.

15 And having driven him outside the kerem, they killed him. What then will the Baal HaKerem do to them?

16 He will come and will destroy these koremim (vine keepers) and will give the kerem to others. And having heard this, HaAm Yisroel said, Chas vShalom!

17 But having looked at them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, What then is this which has been written: EVEN MAASU HAYTAH LEROSH PINAH (The Stone they rejected became the capstone)? [TEHILLIM 118:22]

18 Everyone having fallen upon that even (stone) will be DAKU (broken into pieces, DANIEL 2:34), and upon whomever it falls, it will crush him [YESHAYAH 8:14,15; DANIEL 2:34f].

19 And the Sofrim and the Rashei Hakohenim sought to lay their hands upon him in the same hour, but they were afraid of HaAm Yisroel, for they knew that he spoke this mashal (parable) against them.

20 And having watched carefully, they sent spies pretending themselves to be tzaddikim, that they might catch him in his dvar, so as to deliver him to the rulers and the manhigim under the Moshel (Governor).

21 And they set a she’elah (question) before him, saying, Rabbi, we have daas that you speak beemes in the shiurim you say and you show no deference toward anyone, but on the basis of HaEmes you give torah about HaDerech Hashem.

22 Is it mutar for us to pay tax to Caesar or not?

23 But having noticed the ORMAH (cunning, craftiness, BERESHIS 3:1) in their manner, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them,

24 Show me a denarius. Whose demut (likeness) has it? And whose inscription? And they said, Caesar’s.

25 And he said to them, Then give the things of Caesar to Caesar and the things of Hashem to Hashem.

26 And they were not able to catch him in his dvar before the people and, having been mishpoyel (marveled) at his teshuva (answer), they were silent.

27 And some of the Tzedukim—the Tzedukim are the ones speaking against the Techiyas HaMesim, who say there is none—approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach. They set a she’elah (question) before him,

28 Saying, Rabbi, Moshe Rabbenu laid it down in writing to us, if someone’s ach dies and has an isha, and UVEN EIN LO (and there is no son to him), that he should take the almanah of his ach and he should raise up a zera (seed) to his ach. [Dt 25:5]

29 Now there were shiva achim. And the first took an isha, and died UVEN EIN LO (and there is no son to him).

30 And the second took her to be his isha, and he died childless.

31 And the third took her; and likewise also the seventh did not leave behind a ben and they all died.

32 And lemaskana (finally) the isha died.

33 The isha, then, in the Techiyas HaMesim, of which of them does she become the wife? For shiva had her as isha (wife).

34 And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to them, The banim of the Olam Hazeh marry and are given in marriage:

35 But the ones having been considered worthy to attain to the Olam HaBah and the Techiyas HaMesim neither marry nor are given in marriage.

36 For neither is it possible any longer for them to die, for they are like malachim and they are bnei haElohim, being bnei haTechiyas HaMesim.

37 But that the Mesim are made to stand up alive, even Moshe revealed at the burning bush, as he calls Adonoi ELOHEI AVRAHAM ELOHEI YITZCHAK VELOHEI YAAKOV. [SHEMOT 3:6]

38 But Hashem is not the G-d of Mesim but is Elohei HaChayyim, for to Hashem all are alive.

39 And, in reply, some of the Sofrim said, Rabbi, you spoke well.

40 For no longer were they daring to set a she’elah (question) before him regarding anything.

41 And he said to them, How do they say that the Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach is to be [merely] Dovid’s ben?

42 For Dovid himself says in the book of Tehillim, NEUM HASHEM LADONI: SHEV LIMINI,

43 AD ASHIT OYVECHA L’RAGLECHA. [TEHILLIM 110:1]

44 Therefore, if Dovid calls him Adon, how is he [merely] ben Dovid?

45 In the hearing of all the people, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to his talmidim,

46 Beware of the Sofrim (Rabbonim), the ones wanting to strut around in long kaftans and loving [obsequious] Birkat Shalom greetings in the marketplaces and the rashei hamoshavot (chief seats) in the shuls and the places of kavod at seudos tishen,

47 Which devour the batim (houses) of the almanot (widows) and for the sake of appearance daven lengthy tefillos (prayers): the same shall receive greater damnation.
