Mt Chapter 22 Verses 1-46

22:1
And
Jesus,
talking to
them
again
in
stories,
said:
22:2
The
kingdom
of
heaven
is
like
a
certain
king,
who
made
a
feast
when
his
son
was
married,
22:3
And
sent
out
his
servants
to
get
in
the
guests
to
the
feast:
and
they
would not come.
22:4
Again
he
sent
out
other
servants,
with
orders
to
say
to
the
guests,
See,
I
have
made
ready
my
feast:
my
oxen
and
my
fat
beasts
have been
put
to
death,
and
all
things
are
ready:
come to
the
feast.
22:5
But
they
gave
no
attention,
and
went
about
their
business,
one
to
his
farm,
another
to
his
trade:
22:6
And
the rest
put
violent
hands
on
his
servants,
and
did
evil
to
them,
and
put
them
to
death.
22:7
But
the
king
was
angry;
and
he
sent
his
armies,
and
those
who
had
put
his
servants
to
death
he
gave
to
destruction,
burning down
their
town
with
fire.
22:8
Then
he
said
to
his
servants,
The
feast
is
ready
but
the
guests
were not
good
enough.
22:9
Go
then
to
the
cross-roads,
and
get
all
those
whom
you
see
to
come to
the
bride-feast.
22:10
And
those
servants
went out
into
the
streets,
and
got
together
all
those
whom
they
came
across,
bad
and
good:
and
the
feast
was
full
of
guests.
22:11
But
when
the
king
came in
to
see
the
guests,
he
saw
there
a
man
who
had not
on
a
guest’s
robe;
22:12
And
he
says
to
him,
Friend,
how
came
you
in
here
not
having
a
guest’s
robe?
And
he
had
nothing
to
say.
22:13
Then
the
king
said
to
the
servants,
Put
cords
round
his
hands
and
feet
and
put
him
out
into
the
dark;
there
will
be
weeping
and
cries
of
sorrow.
22:14
For
out of
all
to
whom
the
good news
has
come,
only
a
small
number
will
get
salvation.
22:15
Then
the
Pharisees
went
and
had
a
meeting
to
see
how
they
might
make
use
of
his
words
to
take
him.
22:16
And
they
sent
to
him
their
disciples,
with
the
Herodians,
saying,
Master,
we
see
that
you
are
true,
and
that
you
are
teaching
the
true
way
of
God,
and
have
no
fear
of
anyone,
because
you
have
no
respect
for
a
man’s
position.
22:17
Give
us,
then,
your
opinion
of
this:
Is
it
right
to
give
tax
to
Caesar,
or
not?
22:18
But
Jesus
saw
their
trick
and
said,
Oh
false
ones,
why
are you
attempting
to
put
me
in
the
wrong?
22:19
Let
me
see
the
tax
money.
And
they
gave
him
a
penny.
22:20
And
he
said
to
them,
Whose
is
this
image
and
name
on
it?
22:21
They
say
to
him,
Caesar’s.
Then
he
said
to
them,
Give
to
Caesar
the
things
which
are
Caesar’s,
and
to
God
the
things
which
are
God’s.
22:22
And
hearing
it,
they
were
full
of
wonder,
and
went away
from
him.
22:23
On
the
same
day
there
came to
him
the
Sadducees,
who
say
that
there
is
no
coming back
from
the
dead:
and
they
put
a
question
to
him,
saying,
22:24
Master,
Moses
said,
If
a
man,
at
the
time
of
his
death,
has
no
children,
let
his
brother
take
his
wife,
and
get
a
family
for
his
brother;
22:25
Now
there
were
among
us
seven
brothers;
and
the
first
was
married
and
at
his
death,
having
no
seed,
gave
his
wife
to
his
brother;
22:26
In
the
same way
the
second
and
the
third,
up to
the
seventh.
22:27
And
last
of
all
the
woman
came to
her
end.
22:28
When
they
come back
from
the
dead,
then,
whose
wife
will
she
be
of
the
seven?
because
they
all
had
her.
22:29
But
Jesus
said
to
them
in
answer,
You
are
in
error,
not
having
knowledge
of
the
Writings,
or
of
the
power
of
God.
22:30
For
when
they
come back
from
the
dead
there
are
no
husbands
and
wives,
but
they
are
as
the
angels
in
heaven.
22:31
But
about
the
dead
coming back
to
life,
have
you
no
knowledge
of
what was said
to
you
by
God
in
the
Writings:
22:32
I
am
the
God
of
Abraham,
and
the
God
of
Isaac,
and
the
God
of
Jacob?
God
is
not
the
God
of
the
dead
but
of
the
living.
22:33
And
the
people
hearing
it
were
surprised
at
his
teaching.
22:34
But
the
Pharisees,
hearing
how
the
mouths
of
the
Sadducees
had been
stopped,
came
together;
22:35
And
one
of
them,
a
teacher
of
the
law,
put
a
question
to
him,
testing
him,
and
saying,
22:36
Master,
which
is
the
chief
rule
in
the
law?
22:37
And
he
said
to
him,
Have
love
for
the
Lord
your
God
with
all
your
heart,
and
with
all
your
soul,
and
with
all
your
mind.
22:38
This
is
the
first
and
greatest
rule.
22:39
And
a
second
like
it
is
this,
Have
love
for
your
neighbour
as
for
yourself.
22:40
On
these
two
rules
all
the
law
and
the
prophets
are
based.
22:41
Now
while
the
Pharisees
were
together,
Jesus
put
a
question
to
them,
saying,
22:42
What
is
your
opinion
of
the
Christ?
whose
son
is
he?
They
say
to
him,
The
Son
of
David.
22:43
He
says
to
them,
How
then
does
David
in
the
Spirit
give
him
the
name
of
Lord,
saying,
22:44
The
Lord
said
to
my
Lord,
Be
seated
at
my
right hand,
till
I
put
under
your
feet
all
those
who
are
against
you?
22:45
If
David
then
gives
him
the
name
of
Lord,
how
is
he
his
son?
22:46
And
no
one
was able
to
give
him
an
answer,
and
so
great
was
their
fear
of
him,
that
from
that
day
no
one
put
any
more
questions
to
him.
