Contextual Overview
20 And watching carefully, they sent spies, pretending themselves to be righteous, in order that they might seize upon a word of His, so as to deliver Him to the power and to the authority of the governor. 21 And they questioned Him, saying, Teacher, we know that You say and teach rightly, and do not receive a face, but You teach the way of God with truth. 22 Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? 23 But perceiving their slyness, He said to them, Why do you tempt Me? 24 Show Me a denarius. Whose image and superscription does it have? And answering, they said, Caesar's. 25 And He said to them, Then give back the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God. 26 And they were not able to lay hold of His speech before the people. And marveling at His answer, they were silent.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
a penny: Matthew 18:28, Matthew 20:2
image: This was the head of the emperor; the superscription his titles. Julius Cesar was the first who caused his image to be struck on the Roman coin; and Tiberius was emperor at this time. This therefore was a denarius of Cesar, ××× ×¨× ×§×סר ×× ×, as it is termed in the Talmud; and consequently this was respecting the tribute required by the Roman government.
Caesar's: Luke 20:22, Luke 2:1, Luke 3:1, Luke 23:2, Acts 11:28, Acts 25:8-12, Acts 26:32, Philippians 4:22
Reciprocal: Numbers 24:24 - and shall afflict Eber Matthew 22:20 - superscription Mark 12:16 - image
