Matthew 22:17 in Context — Matthew 22
15 Alors les pharisiens allèrent se consulter sur les moyens de surprendre Jésus par ses propres paroles.
16 Ils envoyèrent auprès de lui leurs disciples avec les hérodiens, qui dirent: Maître, nous savons que tu es vrai, et que tu enseignes la voie de Dieu selon la vérité, sans t’inquiéter de personne, car tu ne regardes pas à l’apparence des hommes.
17 Dis-nous donc ce qu’il t’en semble: est-il permis, ou non, de payer le tribut à César?
18 Jésus, connaissant leur méchanceté, répondit: Pourquoi me tentez-vous, hypocrites?
19 Montrez-moi la monnaie avec laquelle on paie le tribut. Et ils lui présentèrent un denier.
