AICNT MARK Chapter 12

MARK 12 ©

12And he began to speak to them in parables, “A man planted a vineyard and put a fence around it and dug a winepress and built a tower and leased it to vine-growers and went on a journey. 2And he sent a servant to the vine-growers at the time, in order to receive from the vine-growers some of the fruits of the vineyard; 3and taking him, they beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4And again he sent another servant to them; and {him they struck on the head and treated shamefully}.[fn] 5And he sent another; and they killed him, and many others, some they beat, and some they killed. 6He still had one, a beloved son; he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ 7But those vine-growers [[seeing him coming]][fn] said to themselves, ‘This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 8And taking him, they killed him and threw him out of the vineyard. 9What [then] will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vine-growers and give the vineyard to others.

10“Have you not read this scripture, ‘The stone which the builders rejected, this has become the cornerstone; 11this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”[fn]

12And they sought to seize him, but they feared the crowd, for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them. And leaving him, they went away.

13And they send to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, in order to catch him in his words. 14And coming, they say to him, “Teacher, we know that you are truthful and do not care about anyone; for you do not look at the face of men, but teach the way of God in truth. [[So tell us]][fn] Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Should we pay, or should we not pay?”

15But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius so that I may see it.” 16And they brought it. And he says to them, “Whose image is this and the inscription?” And they said to him, “Caesar's.” 17Jesus said to them, “Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.” And they marveled at him.

18And Sadducees come to him, who say there is no resurrection, and they questioned him, saying, 19“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if someone's brother dies and leaves a wife, and leaves no {child},[fn] the brother should take the wife and raise up offspring for his brother.[fn] 20There were seven brothers; and the first took a wife, and dying left no offspring; 21and the second took her, and died leaving no offspring; and the third likewise; 22and the seven [[had her]][fn] left no offspring. [Last of all the woman also died.][fn] 23In the resurrection [when they rise][fn], whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as wife.”

24Jesus said to them, “Is it not for this reason that you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God? 25For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels [[which are]][fn] in heaven. 26But concerning the dead, that they are raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and [the] God of Isaac, and [the] God of Jacob? 27He is not the God of the dead, but of the living; [[therefore]][fn] you are greatly mistaken.”

28And one of the scribes came up, having heard them disputing, and seeing that he had answered them well, asked him, “What is the first commandment of all?”

29Jesus answered, “The first [[of all commandments]][fn] is, ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one; 30and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’[fn] [[This is the first commandment.]][fn] 31The second is {this},[fn] ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”[fn]

32And the scribe said to him, “Well said, teacher, you have spoken the truth, for there is one, and there is no other besides him;[fn] 33and to love him with all [the][fn] heart, and with all the understanding, [[with all the soul]][fn] and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is more than all the burnt offerings and sacrifices.”[fn] 34And Jesus, seeing [him] that he had answered wisely, said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to ask him any more questions.

35And Jesus answered and said, teaching in the temple, “How do the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David? 36David himself said by the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies {under your feet}.” ’[fn] 37David himself calls him Lord; so how is he his son?” And the large crowd listened to him gladly.

38And in his teaching he said, “Beware of the scribes who like to walk around in long robes and receive greetings in the marketplaces, 39and have the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets, 40who devour widows' houses and for a show make long prayers; they will receive the greater condemnation.”

41And sitting down opposite the treasury, {he}[fn] observed how the crowd was putting money into the treasury; and many rich people were putting in large amounts. 42And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which is a quadrans.[fn] 43And calling his disciples to him, he said to them, “Truly I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury; 44for they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, her entire livelihood.”
