Lk Chapter 20 Verses 1-47

20:1
And
it
came
about
on
one
of
those
days,
when
he
was
teaching
the
people
in
the
Temple
and
preaching
the
good news,
20:2
That
the
chief
priests
and
the
scribes
and
the
rulers
of
the
people
came to
him
and
said,
Make
clear
to
us
by
what
authority
you
do
these
things
and
who
gave
you
this
authority.
20:3
And
in
answer
he
said
to
them,
I
will
put
a
question
to
you,
and
do you
give
me
an
answer:
20:4
The
baptism
of
John,
was
it
from
heaven
or
of
men?
20:5
And
they
said
among
themselves,
If
we
say,
From
heaven;
he
will
say,
Why
did you
not
have
faith
in
him?
20:6
But
if
we
say,
Of
men;
we
will
be
stoned
by
the
people,
for
they
are
certain
that
John
was
a
prophet.
20:7
And
they
made
answer
that
they
had
no
idea
where
it
came
from.
20:8
And
Jesus
said,
And
I
will not
make
clear
to
you
by
what
authority
I
do
these
things.
20:9
And
he
gave
the
people
this
story:
A
man made
a
vine-garden
and
gave
the
use
of
it
to
some
field-workers
and
went into
another
country
for
a
long time.
20:10
And
at
the
right time
he
sent
a
servant
to
the
workers
to
get
part of
the
fruit
from
the
vines;
but
the
workmen
gave
him
blows
and
sent
him
away
with
nothing.
20:11
And
he
sent
another
servant,
and
they
gave
blows
to
him
in
the
same way,
and
put
shame
on
him,
and
sent
him
away
with
nothing.
20:12
And
he
sent
a third,
and
they
gave
him
wounds
and
put
him
out.
20:13
And
the
lord
of
the
garden
said,
What
am I
to
do?
I
will
send
my
dearly
loved
son;
they
may
give
respect
to
him.
20:14
But
when
the
workmen
saw
him,
they
said
to
one
another,
This
is
he
who
will
one
day
be
the
owner
of
the
property:
let
us
put
him
to
death
and
the
heritage
will
be
ours.
20:15
And
driving
him
out of
the
garden
they
put
him
to
death.
Now
what
will
the
lord
do
to
these
workmen?
20:16
He
will
come
and
put
them
to
destruction
and
give
the
garden
to
others.
And
when
he
said
this,
they
said,
May
it
not
be
so.
20:17
But
he,
looking
on
them,
said,
Is
it
not
in
the
Writings,
The
stone
which
the
builders
put on
one
side,
the
same
has
become
the
chief
stone
of
the
building?
20:18
Everyone
falling
on
that
stone
will
be
broken,
but
the
man
on
whom
the
stone
comes
down
will
be
crushed
to
dust.
20:19
And
the
chief
priests
and
the
scribes
made
attempts
to
get
their
hands
on
him
in
that
very
hour;
and
they
were
in
fear
of
the
people,
for
they
saw
that
he
had
made up
this
story
against
them.
20:20
And
they
kept
watch
on
him,
and
sent
out
secret
representatives,
who
were
acting
the
part of
good
men,
in order
that
they
might
get
something
from
his
words,
on
account
of
which
they
might
give
him
up to
the
government
and
into
the
power
of
the
ruler.
20:21
And
they
put
a
question
to
him,
saying,
Master,
we
are
certain
that
your
teaching
and
your
words
are
right,
and
that
you
have
no
respect
for
a
man’s
position,
but
you
are
teaching
the
true
way
of
God:
20:22
Is
it
right
for
us
to
make
payment
of
taxes
to
Caesar
or
not?
20:23
But
he
saw through
their
trick
and
said
to
them,
20:24
Let
me
see
a
penny.
Whose
image
and
name
are
on
it?
And
they
said,
Caesar’s.
20:25
And
he
said,
Then
give
to
Caesar
the
things
which
are
Caesar’s,
and
to
God
the
things
which
are
God’s.
20:26
And
they
were not
able
to
get
anything
from
these
words
before
the
people:
but
they
were
full
of
wonder
at
his
answer,
and
said
nothing.
20:27
And
some
of
the
Sadducees
came to
him,
who
say
that
there
is
no
coming back
from
the
dead;
and
they
said
to
him,
20:28
Master,
Moses
said
that
if
a
man’s
brother
comes to
his
end,
having
a
wife,
but
no
children,
his
brother
is
to
take
the
wife,
and
get
a
family
for
his
brother.
20:29
Now
there
were
seven
brothers,
and
the
first
had
a
wife
and
came to
his
end,
having
no
children;
20:30
And
the
second;
20:31
And
the
third
took
her;
and
in
the
same way,
all
the
seven,
without
having
any
children,
came to
their
end.
20:32
And
last
of
all,
the
woman
came to
her
end.
20:33
When
they
come back
from
the
dead,
whose
wife
will
she
be?
for
all
the
seven
had
her.
20:34
And
Jesus
said
to
them,
The
sons
of
this
world
are
married
and
have
wives;
20:35
But
those
to
whom
is
given
the
reward
of
the
world
to
come,
and
to
come back
from
the
dead,
have
no
wives,
and
are not
married;
20:36
And
death
has
no more
power
over
them,
for
they
are
equal
to
the
angels,
and
are
sons
of
God,
being
of
those
who
will
come back
from
the
dead.
20:37
But
even
Moses
made
it
clear
that
the
dead
come back
to
life,
saying,
in
the
story
of
the
burning
thorn-tree,
The
Lord,
the
God
of
Abraham,
the
God
of
Isaac,
and
the
God
of
Jacob.
20:38
Now
he
is
not
the
God
of
the
dead
but
of
the
living:
for
all
men
are
living
to
him.
20:39
And
some
of
the
scribes,
in
answer
to
this,
said,
Master,
you
have
said
well.
20:40
And
they
had
fear
of
putting
any
more
questions
to
him.
20:41
And
he
said
to
them,
Why
do
they
say
that
the
Christ
is
the
son
of
David?
20:42
For
David
himself
says
in
the
book
of
Psalms,
The
Lord
said
to
my
Lord,
Take
your
seat
at
my
right hand,
20:43
Till
I
put
under
your
feet
all
those
who
are
against
you.
20:44
David
then
gives
him
the
name
of
Lord,
so
how
is
it
possible
for
him
to
be
his
son?
20:45
And
in
the
hearing
of
all
the
people
he
said
to
his
disciples,
20:46
Keep away
from
the
scribes,
whose
pleasure
it
is
to go
about
in
long
robes,
and
to
have
words
of
respect
said
to
them
in
the
market-places,
and
to
take
the
chief
seats
in
the
Synagogues
and
the
first places
at
feasts;
20:47
Who
take
the
property
of
widows
and
before
the
eyes
of
men
make
long
prayers;
they
will
get
a
greater
punishment.
