BLB MAT Chapter 22

22 And answering, Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying, 2 "The kingdom of the heavens has become like a man, a king, who made a wedding feast for his son. 3 And he sent his servants to call those having been invited to the wedding feast--and they were not willing to come. 4 Again he sent other servants, saying, 'Say to those having been invited, "Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My oxen and the fatlings have been killed, and all things are ready; come to the wedding feast."' 5 And having paid no attention they went away, one to the own field, and one to his business. 6 And the rest, having laid hold of his servants, mistreated and killed them. 7 And the king was angry, and having sent his armies, he destroyed those murderers and burned their city. 8 Then he says to his servants, 'Indeed the wedding feast is ready, but those having been invited were not worthy. 9 Therefore go into the thoroughfares of the highways, and invite to the wedding feast as many as you shall find.' 10 And those servants, having gone out into the highways, brought together all, as many as they found, both evil and good; and the wedding hall became full of those reclining. 11 And the king having entered in to see those reclining, he beheld a man there not being dressed in wedding clothes. 12 And he says to him, 'Friend, how did you enter here not having a wedding garment?' And he was speechless. 13 Then the king said to the servants, 'Having bound his hands and feet, cast him out into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of the teeth.' 14 For many are called, but few chosen." 15 Then the Pharisees having gone out, took counsel how they might trap Him in His words. 16 And they send their disciples to Him, with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that You are true, and You teach the way of God in the truth, and to You there is care about no one, for You do not look on the appearance of men. 17 Therefore tell us, what do You think? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?" 18 But having known their malice, Jesus said, "Hypocrites, why do you test Me? 19 Show Me the coin of the tribute." And they presented to Him a denarius. 20 And He says to them, "Whose likeness and whose inscription is this?" 21 They say to Him, "Caesar's." Then He says to them, "Therefore give back to Caesar the things of Caesar, and to God the things of God." 22 And having heard, they marveled. And having left Him, they went away. 23 On that day Sadducees, those saying there is no resurrection, came to Him, and they questioned Him, 24 saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If anyone should die not having children, his brother will marry his wife and will raise up offspring for his brother.' 25 Now there were seven brothers among us; and the first died, and having married not having seed, he left his wife to his brother. 26 Likewise also the second, and the third, unto the seventh. 27 And last of all, the woman died. 28 In the resurrection, therefore, of which of the seven will she be wife? For all had her." 29 And, Jesus answering said to them, "You err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection, neither do they marry, nor are given in marriage, but they are like angels in heaven. 31 And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which has been spoken to you by God, saying, 32 I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?' He is not the God of the dead, but of the living." 33 And the crowds having heard, were astonished at His teaching. 34 And the Pharisees, having heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, were gathered together the same. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, questioned Him, testing Him, 36 "Teacher, which commandment is the greatest in the Law?" 37 And He said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.' 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets." 41 And the Pharisees having been assembled together, Jesus questioned them, 42 saying, "What do you think concerning the Christ? Of whom is He son?" They say to Him, "Of David." 43 He says to them, "How then does David in spirit call Him Lord, saying: 44 The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand, until I place Your enemies as a footstool for Your feet."' 45 If therefore David calls Him Lord, how is He his son?" 46 And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor did anyone dare from that day to question Him any longer.
