riversident@Luke:20:1 @ ON one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the Temple courts and proclaiming the good news, the high priests and the scribes came up with the elders

riversident@Luke:20:2 @ and said to him, "Tell us by what authority you are doing these things or who it is that gave you this authority."

riversident@Luke:20:3 @ He answered them,

riversident@Luke:20:5 @ They conferred among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'

riversident@Luke:20:6 @ and if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."

riversident@Luke:20:7 @ So they answered that they did not know where it came from.

riversident@Luke:20:8 @ Jesus said to them,

riversident@Luke:20:19 @ The scribes and the high priests were eager to lay hands on him at that very time, for they knew that he had aimed the illustration at them; but they were afraid of the people.

riversident@Luke:20:20 @ So watching insidiously for an opportunity they sent spies, who pretended to be honest men, to seize upon anything he might say, so as to hand him over to the authorities and to the power of the Governor.

riversident@Luke:20:21 @ They asked him, "Teacher, we know that you speak and teach correctly and that you do not regard personal influences, but you teach the way of God according to truth.

riversident@Luke:20:22 @ Is it right for us to give tribute to Caesar or not?"

riversident@Luke:20:23 @ He saw through their cunning and said to them,

riversident@Luke:20:24 @ They said, "Caesar's."

riversident@Luke:20:25 @ He said to them,

riversident@Luke:20:26 @ They could not seize upon his words before the people, and in astonishment at his answer they were silent.

riversident@Luke:20:27 @ There came to him some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is any resurrection, and asked him,

riversident@Luke:20:29 @ Well, there were seven brothers. The first took a wife and died childless.

riversident@Luke:20:30 @ The second

riversident@Luke:20:31 @ and the third and the rest of the seven took her and died leaving no children.

riversident@Luke:20:32 @ Finally the woman also died.

riversident@Luke:20:33 @ Now this woman \'97 whose wife will she be at the resurrection? For she was wife to the seven."

riversident@Luke:20:39 @ Some of the scribes answered him, "Teacher, you have spoken well."

riversident@Luke:20:40 @ And they no longer dared to ask him anything.

riversident@Luke:20:41 @ He said to them,
