Chapter 22
1
And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
2
+w The kingdom|strong=“G0932”+w* +w of heaven|strong=“G3772”+w* +w is like unto|strong=“G3666”+w* +w a certain|strong=“G0444”+w* +w king|strong=“G0935”+w*, +w which|strong=“G3748”+w* +w made|strong=“G4160”+w* +w a marriage|strong=“G1062”+w* +w for|strong=“G5207”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w son|strong=“G5207”+w*,
3
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w sent forth|strong=“G0649”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w servants|strong=“G1401”+w* +w to call|strong=“G2564”+w* +w them that were bidden|strong=“G2564”+w* +w to|strong=“G1519”+w* +w the wedding|strong=“G1062”+w*: +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w they would|strong=“G2309”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w come|strong=“G2064”+w*.
4
+w Again|strong=“G3825”+w*, +w he sent forth|strong=“G0649”+w* +w other|strong=“G0243”+w* +w servants|strong=“G1401”+w*, +w saying|strong=“G3004”+w*, +w Tell|strong=“G2036”+w* +w them which are bidden|strong=“G2564”+w*, +w Behold|strong=“G2400”+w*, +w I have prepared|strong=“G2090”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w dinner|strong=“G0712”+w*: +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w oxen|strong=“G5022”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +add my+add* +w fatlings|strong=“G4619”+w* +add are+add* +w killed|strong=“G2380”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w all things|strong=“G3956”+w* +add are+add* +w ready|strong=“G2092”+w*: +w come|strong=“G1205”+w* +w unto|strong=“G1519”+w* +w the marriage|strong=“G1062”+w*.
5
+w But|strong=“G1161”+w* +w they made light of|strong=“G0272”+w* +add it+add*, +w and went their ways|strong=“G0565”+w*, +w one|strong=“G3588”+w* +w to|strong=“G1519”+w* +w his|strong=“G2398”+w* +w farm|strong=“G0068”+w*, +w another|strong=“G3588”+w* +w to|strong=“G1519”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w merchandise|strong=“G1711”+w*:
6
+w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w the remnant|strong=“G3062”+w* +w took|strong=“G2902”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w servants|strong=“G1401”+w*, +w and entreated them spitefully|strong=“G5195”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w slew|strong=“G0615”+w* +add them+add*.
7
+w But|strong=“G1161”+w* +w when|strong=“G0191”+w* +w the king|strong=“G0935”+w* +w heard|strong=“G0191”+w* +add thereof+add*, +w he was wroth|strong=“G3710”+w*: +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he sent forth|strong=“G3992”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w armies|strong=“G4753”+w*, +w and destroyed|strong=“G0622”+w* +w those|strong=“G1565”+w* +w murderers|strong=“G5406”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w burned up|strong=“G1714”+w* +w their|strong=“G0846”+w* +w city|strong=“G4172”+w*.
8
+w Then|strong=“G5119”+w* +w saith he|strong=“G3004”+w* +w to|strong=“G1401”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w servants|strong=“G1401”+w*, +w The wedding|strong=“G1062”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w ready|strong=“G2092”+w*, +w but|strong=“G1161”+w* +w they which were bidden|strong=“G2564”+w* +w were|strong=“G2258”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w worthy|strong=“G0514”+w*.
9
+w Go ye|strong=“G4198”+w* +w therefore|strong=“G3767”+w* +w into|strong=“G1909”+w* +w the highways|strong=“G3598”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w as many|strong=“G3745”+w* +w as|strong=“G0302”+w* +w ye shall find|strong=“G2147”+w*, +w bid|strong=“G2564”+w* +w to|strong=“G1519”+w* +w the marriage|strong=“G1062”+w*.
10
+w So|strong=“G2532”+w* +w those|strong=“G1565”+w* +w servants|strong=“G1401”+w* +w went out|strong=“G1831”+w* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w the highways|strong=“G3598”+w*, +w and gathered together|strong=“G4863”+w* +w all|strong=“G3956”+w* +w as many as|strong=“G3745”+w* +w they found|strong=“G2147”+w*, +w both|strong=“G5037”+w* +w bad|strong=“G4190”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w good|strong=“G0018”+w*: +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w the wedding|strong=“G1062”+w* +w was furnished|strong=“G4130”+w* +w with guests|strong=“G0345”+w*.
11
¶ +w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w when|strong=“G1525”+w* +w the king|strong=“G0935”+w* +w came in|strong=“G1525”+w* +w to see|strong=“G2300”+w* +w the guests|strong=“G0345”+w*, +w he saw|strong=“G1492”+w* +w there|strong=“G1563”+w* +w a man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w which had|strong=“G1746”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w on|strong=“G1746”+w* +w a wedding|strong=“G1062”+w* +w garment|strong=“G1742”+w*:
12
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he saith|strong=“G3004”+w* +w unto him|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w Friend|strong=“G2083”+w*, +w how|strong=“G4459”+w* +w camest thou in|strong=“G1525”+w* +w hither|strong=“G5602”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w having|strong=“G2192”+w* +w a|strong=“G1742”+w* +w wedding|strong=“G1062”+w* +w garment|strong=“G1742”+w*? +w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w he was speechless|strong=“G5392”+w*.
13
+w Then|strong=“G5119”+w* +w said|strong=“G2036”+w* +w the king|strong=“G0935”+w* +w to the servants|strong=“G1249”+w*, +w Bind|strong=“G1210”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w* +w hand|strong=“G5495”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w foot|strong=“G4228”+w*, +w and take|strong=“G0142”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w* +w away|strong=“G0142”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w cast|strong=“G1544”+w* +add him+add* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w outer|strong=“G1857”+w* +w darkness|strong=“G4655”+w*; +w there|strong=“G1563”+w* +w shall be|strong=“G2071”+w* +w weeping|strong=“G2805”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w gnashing|strong=“G1030”+w* +w of teeth|strong=“G3599”+w*.
14
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w many|strong=“G4183”+w* +w are|strong=“G1526”+w* +w called|strong=“G2822”+w*, +w but|strong=“G1161”+w* +w few|strong=“G3641”+w* +add are+add* +w chosen|strong=“G1588”+w*.
15
¶ Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
16
And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.
17
Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
18
But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, +w Why|strong=“G5101”+w* +w tempt ye|strong=“G3985”+w* +w me|strong=“G3165”+w*, +add ye+add* +w hypocrites|strong=“G5273”+w*?
19
j +w Shew|strong=“G1925”+w* +w me|strong=“G3427”+w* +w the tribute|strong=“G2778”+w* +w money|strong=“G3546”+w*. And they brought unto him a penny.
20
And he saith unto them, +w Whose|strong=“G5101”+w* +add is+add* +w this|strong=“G3778”+w* +w image|strong=“G1504”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w superscription|strong=“G1923”+w*?
21
They say unto him, Cæsar’s. Then saith he unto them, +w Render|strong=“G0591”+w* +w therefore|strong=“G3767”+w* +w unto Cæsar|strong=“G2541”+w* +w the things which are Cæsar’s|strong=“G2541”+w*; +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w unto God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w the things that are God’s|strong=“G2316”+w*.
22
When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.
23
¶ The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
24
Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
25
Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:
26
Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.
27
And last of all the woman died also.
28
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
29
Jesus answered and said unto them, +w Ye do err|strong=“G4105”+w*, +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w knowing|strong=“G1492”+w* +w the scriptures|strong=“G1124”+w*, +w nor|strong=“G3366”+w* +w the power|strong=“G1411”+w* +w of God|strong=“G2316”+w*.
30
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w the resurrection|strong=“G0386”+w* +w they|strong=“G1060”+w* +w neither|strong=“G3777”+w* +w marry|strong=“G1060”+w*, +w nor|strong=“G3777”+w* +w are given in marriage|strong=“G1547”+w*, +w but|strong=“G0235”+w* +w are|strong=“G1526”+w* +w as|strong=“G5613”+w* +w the angels|strong=“G0032”+w* +w of God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w heaven|strong=“G3772”+w*.
31
+w But|strong=“G1161”+w* +w as touching|strong=“G4012”+w* +w the resurrection|strong=“G0386”+w* +w of the dead|strong=“G3498”+w*, +w have ye|strong=“G0314”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w read|strong=“G0314”+w* +w that which was spoken|strong=“G4483”+w* +w unto you|strong=“G5213”+w* +w by|strong=“G5259”+w* +w God|strong=“G2316”+w*, +w saying|strong=“G3004”+w*,
32
+w I|strong=“G1473”+w* +w am|strong=“G1510”+w* +w the God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w of Abraham|strong=“G0011”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w the God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w of Isaac|strong=“G2464”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w the God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w of Jacob|strong=“G2384”+w*? +w God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +w the God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w of the dead|strong=“G3498”+w*, +w but|strong=“G0235”+w* +w of the living|strong=“G2198”+w*.
33
And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.
34
¶ But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
35
Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36
Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37
Jesus said unto him, +w Thou shalt love|strong=“G0025”+w* +w the Lord|strong=“G2962”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w with|strong=“G1722”+w* +w all|strong=“G3650”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w heart|strong=“G2588”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w with|strong=“G1722”+w* +w all|strong=“G3650”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w soul|strong=“G5590”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w with|strong=“G1722”+w* +w all|strong=“G3650”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w mind|strong=“G1271”+w*.
38
+w This|strong=“G3778”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w the first|strong=“G4413”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w great|strong=“G3173”+w* +w commandment|strong=“G1785”+w*.
39
+w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w the second|strong=“G1208”+w* +add is+add* +w like|strong=“G3664”+w* +w unto it|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w Thou shalt love|strong=“G0025”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w neighbour|strong=“G4139”+w* +w as|strong=“G5613”+w* +w thyself|strong=“G4572”+w*.
40
+w On|strong=“G1722”+w* +w these|strong=“G3778”+w* +w two|strong=“G1417”+w* +w commandments|strong=“G1785”+w* +w hang|strong=“G2910”+w* +w all|strong=“G3650”+w* +w the law|strong=“G3551”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w the prophets|strong=“G4396”+w*.
41
¶ While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
42
Saying, j +w What|strong=“G5101”+w* +w think|strong=“G1380”+w* +w ye|strong=“G5213”+w* +w of|strong=“G4012”+w* +w Christ|strong=“G5547”+w*? +w whose|strong=“G5101”+w* +w son|strong=“G5207”+w* +w is he|strong=“G2076”+w*? They say unto him, The Son of David.
43
He saith unto them, +w How|strong=“G4459”+w* +w then|strong=“G3767”+w* +w doth|strong=“G2564”+w* +w David|strong=“G1138”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w spirit|strong=“G4151”+w* +w call|strong=“G2564”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w* +w Lord|strong=“G2962”+w*, +w saying|strong=“G3004”+w*,
44
The +nd +w LORD|strong=“G3588”+w*+nd* +w said|strong=“G2036”+w* +w unto|strong=“G2962”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w Lord|strong=“G2962”+w*, +w Sit thou|strong=“G2521”+w* +w on|strong=“G1537”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w right hand|strong=“G1188”+w*, +w till|strong=“G2193”+w* +w I make|strong=“G5087”+w* +w thine|strong=“G4675”+w* +w enemies|strong=“G2190”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w footstool|strong=“G5286”+w*?
45
+w If|strong=“G1487”+w* +w David|strong=“G1138”+w* +w then|strong=“G3767”+w* +w call|strong=“G2564”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w* +w Lord|strong=“G2962”+w*, +w how|strong=“G4459”+w* +w is he|strong=“G2076”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w son|strong=“G5207”+w*?
46
And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
