Mark 12:13-15

Tree of Life Version

A Test of Loyalty

¹³ Then they send some of the Pharisees and Herodians to Yeshua in order to trap Him with a word. ¹⁴ They come and say to Him, “Teacher, we know that You are honest, and what others think doesn’t concern You. You don’t look at men’s appearance, but teach the way of God according to the truth. Is it permitted to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? ¹⁵ Should we pay, or shouldn’t we?”

But Yeshua saw through their hypocrisy and said to them, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius so I may see it.”
