20:25 give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar: Jesus’ brilliant answer could be taken in two ways. On the face of it, he said that this was Caesar’s money that should properly be paid to Caesar. Jesus’ Jewish listeners also knew that what belongs to Caesar was actually nothing, since everything in the universe belongs to God.
