The question about paying taxes to Caesar
가이사에게 세를 바치는 것에 관한 물음
Luke 20:20–26: they watch him and send out spies, who pretend to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he says, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor. The spies ask him, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?” But he perceives their craftiness and says to them, “Why do you test me? Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answer, “Caesar’s.” He says to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They are not able to trap him in his words before the people; they marvel at his answer and are silent.
