6But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7So they answered that they did not know where it came from.
8Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9He told the people this parable, “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to vine growers, and went into another country for a long time.
10At the appointed time he sent a servant to the vine growers, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vine growers beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
11He then sent yet another servant and they also beat him, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
12He also sent yet a third and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
13So the lord of the vineyard said, 'What will I do? I will send my beloved son. Maybe they will respect him.'
14But when the vine growers saw him, they discussed among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
15They threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16He will come and destroy these vine growers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard it, they said, “May it never be!”
17But Jesus looked at them, and said, “What is the meaning of that which is written: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone'?
18Every one who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces. But on whomever it falls, it will crush.”
19So the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour, for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people.
20Watching him carefully, they sent out spies who pretended to be righteous, that they might find fault with his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
21They asked him, saying, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, and are not influenced by anyone's position, but you teach the truth about the way of God.
22Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23But Jesus understood their craftiness, and said to them,
24“Show me a denarius. Whose image and name is on it?” They said, “Caesar's.”
25He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
26They were not able to find fault with what he had said in front of the people, but marveling at his answer, they were silent.
27When some of the Sadducees came to him, the ones who say that there is no resurrection,
28they asked him, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies, having a wife, and being childless, the man should take the brother's wife, and have a child for his brother.
29There were seven brothers and the first took a wife, and died childless,
30and the second as well.
31The third took her, and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.
32Afterward the woman also died.
33In the resurrection then, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as their wife.”
34Jesus said to them, “The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage.
35But those who are regarded as worthy in that age to receive the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage.
36Neither can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the place concerning the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.
38Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, because all live to him.”
39Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you have answered well.”
40For they did not dare ask him any more questions.
41Jesus said to them, “How do they say that the Christ is David's son?
