Matthew 22




nkjv@Matthew:22:1 @ And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables and said:

nkjv@Matthew:22:2 @ "The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who arranged a marriage for his son,

nkjv@Matthew:22:3 @ and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they were not willing to come.

nkjv@Matthew:22:4 @ Again, he sent out other servants, saying, "Tell those who are invited, "See, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding."'

nkjv@Matthew:22:5 @ But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business.

nkjv@Matthew:22:6 @ And the rest seized his servants, treated them spitefully, and killed them.

nkjv@Matthew:22:7 @ But when the king heard about it, he was furious. And he sent out his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

nkjv@Matthew:22:8 @ Then he said to his servants, "The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy.

nkjv@Matthew:22:9 @ Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the wedding.'

nkjv@Matthew:22:10 @ So those servants went out into the highways and gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good. And the wedding hall was filled with guests.

nkjv@Matthew:22:11 @ "But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment.

nkjv@Matthew:22:12 @ So he said to him, "Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment?' And he was speechless.

nkjv@Matthew:22:13 @ Then the king said to the servants, "Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

nkjv@Matthew:22:14 @ "For many are called, but few are chosen."

nkjv@Matthew:22:15 @ Then the Pharisees went and plotted how they might entangle Him in His talk.

nkjv@Matthew:22:16 @ And they sent to Him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that You are true, and teach the way of God in truth; nor do You care about anyone, for You do not regard the person of men.

nkjv@Matthew:22:17 @ Tell us, therefore, what do You think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"

nkjv@Matthew:22:18 @ But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, "Why do you test Me, you hypocrites?

nkjv@Matthew:22:19 @ Show Me the tax money." So they brought Him a denarius.

nkjv@Matthew:22:20 @ And He said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?"

nkjv@Matthew:22:21 @ They said to Him, "Caesar's." And He said to them, "Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."

nkjv@Matthew:22:22 @ When they had heard these words, they marveled, and left Him and went their way.

nkjv@Matthew:22:23 @ The same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him and asked Him,

nkjv@Matthew:22:24 @ saying: "Teacher, Moses said that if a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.

nkjv@Matthew:22:25 @ Now there were with us seven brothers. The first died after he had married, and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother.

nkjv@Matthew:22:26 @ Likewise the second also, and the third, even to the seventh.

nkjv@Matthew:22:27 @ Last of all the woman died also.

nkjv@Matthew:22:28 @ Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her."

nkjv@Matthew:22:29 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.

nkjv@Matthew:22:30 @ For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels of God in heaven.

nkjv@Matthew:22:31 @ But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying,

nkjv@Matthew:22:32 @ "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."

nkjv@Matthew:22:33 @ And when the multitudes heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.

nkjv@Matthew:22:34 @ But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together.

nkjv@Matthew:22:35 @ Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying,

nkjv@Matthew:22:36 @ "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?"

nkjv@Matthew:22:37 @ Jesus said to him, ""You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'

nkjv@Matthew:22:38 @ This is the first and great commandment.

nkjv@Matthew:22:39 @ And the second is like it: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'

nkjv@Matthew:22:40 @ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."

nkjv@Matthew:22:41 @ While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

nkjv@Matthew:22:42 @ saying, "What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He?" They said to Him, "The Son of David."

nkjv@Matthew:22:43 @ He said to them, "How then does David in the Spirit call Him "Lord,' saying:

nkjv@Matthew:22:44 @ "The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool"'?

nkjv@Matthew:22:45 @ If David then calls Him "Lord,' how is He his Son?"

nkjv@Matthew:22:46 @ And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day on did anyone dare question Him anymore.
