포도원 비유
12 그러고서 예수님은 비유를 들어 그들에게 말씀하셨다. “어떤 사람이 포도원을 만들고 둘레에 울타리를 치고 포도즙틀을 놓을 구덩이를 파고 망대를 세운 후 농부들에게 세로 주고 멀리 여행을 떠났다.
2 포도철이 되어 주인은 자기 몫의 포도를 받아오라고 한 종을 소작인들에게 보냈다.
3 그러나 그들은 그 종을 잡아 때리고 그냥 돌려보냈다.
4 주인은 다시 다른 종을 보냈으나 소작인들은 그의 머리를 때려 상처를 입히고 갖은 모욕을 하였다.
5 주인이 또 다른 종을 보냈으나 그들은 그 종을 죽여 버렸다. 주인이 더 많은 종들을 보냈지만 소작인들은 그들을 때리고 더러는 죽이기까지 하였다.
6 주인에게는 이제 보낼 사람이 하나밖에 없었는데 그는 바로 자기가 사랑하는 아들이었다. 마지막으로 주인은 자기 아들을 보내며 ‘그들이 내 아들은 존경하겠지’ 하였으나
7 소작인들은 ‘이 사람은 상속자이다. 자, 죽여 버리자. 그러면 그의 유산이 우리 것이 될 것이다’ 하고 서로 말하며
8 그를 잡아죽인 다음 포도원 밖에 내어버렸다.
9 그러니 포도원 주인이 어떻게 하겠느냐? 그가 돌아와 소작인들을 죽이고 포도원을 다른 사람에게 맡기지 않겠느냐?
10 너희는 [a]‘건축자들이 버린 돌이 집 모퉁이의 머릿돌이 되었으니 이것은
11 주께서 행하신 것이요 우리 눈에 신기한 일이다’ 라고 한 성경 말씀을 읽지 못하였느냐?”
12 대제사장들과 [b]율법학자들과 장로들은 이 비유가 자기들을 가리켜 한 말인 줄 알고 예수님을 잡으려고 했으나 군중들이 두려워 예수님을 잡지 못하고 그냥 가 버렸다.
원수의 올무
13 그들은 어떻게 해서든지 구실을 붙여 예수님을 잡으려고 바리새파 사람들과 헤롯 당원 중 몇 사람을 예수님께 보내
14 물어 보게 하였다. “선생님, 우리가 알기에 선생님은 진실하셔서 사람의 겉모양을 보지 않으시고 진리대로 하나님의 교훈을 가르치시기 때문에 누구에게도 거리낌이 없으십니다. 그런데 [c]로마 황제에게 세금을 바치는 것이 옳습니까, 옳지 않습니까? 우리가 바쳐야 합니까, 바치지 말아야 합니까?”
15 그러나 예수님은 그들의 위선을 아시고 “왜 나를 시험하느냐? [d]데나리온 하나를 가져와 내게 보여라” 하고 말씀하셨다.
16 그들이 그것을 가져오자 예수님은 “이 초상과 글이 누구의 것이냐?” 하고 물으셨다. 그들이 “황제의 것입니다” 하고 대답하자
17 예수님이 “황제의 것은 황제에게, 하나님의 것은 하나님께 바쳐라” 하고 말씀하셨다. 그래서 그들은 예수님의 말씀을 듣고 말문이 막혀 버렸다.
18 부활이 없다고 주장하는 사두개파 사람들이 예수님께 와서 물었다.
19 “선생님, 모세의 법에는 형이 자식 없이 아내를 두고 죽으면 동생이 형수와 결혼하여 형의 대를 이어야 한다고 했습니다.
20 어느 곳에 일곱 형제가 있었는데 맏이 결혼해 살다가 자식 없이 죽었습니다.
21 그리고 둘째가 형수와 살다가 자식 없이 죽고 셋째도 그랬으며
22 일곱이 모두 그렇게 자식 없이 죽고 맨 나중에 그 여자도 죽었습니다.
23 이렇게 일곱 형제가 모두 한 여자와 살았으니 부활 때 그 여자는 누구의 아내가 되겠습니까?”
24 그래서 예수님은 그들에게 이렇게 대답하셨다. “너희가 성경과 하나님의 능력을 모르기 때문에 잘못 생각하고 있는 것이 아니냐?
25 사람이 죽었다가 다시 살아날 때는 장가도 시집도 안 가며 하늘의 천사들과 같이 된다.
26 너희는 죽은 사람들의 부활에 대하여 모세의 떨기나무 기사에서 하나님이 모세에게 [e]‘나는 아브라함의 하나님, 이삭의 하나님, 야곱의 하나님이다’ 라고 하신 말씀을 읽어 보지 못했느냐?
27 하나님은 죽은 사람들의 하나님이 아니라 살아 있는 사람들의 하나님이시다. 너희는 크게 잘못 생각하고 있다.”
28 곁에서 듣고 있던 한 율법학자가 예수님이 대답을 잘하시는 것을 보고 “모든 계명 중에 제일 중요한 것이 어느 계명입니까?” 하고 물었다.
29 그러자 예수님은 이렇게 대답하셨다. “가장 중요한 계명은 이것이다. [f]‘이스라엘 사람들아, 들어라. 우리 주 하나님은 단 한 분밖에 없는 주이시다.
30 너는 마음을 다하고 정성을 다하고 뜻을 다하고 힘을 다하여 주 너의 하나님을 사랑하라.’
31 그리고 둘째로 중요한 것은 [g]‘네 이웃을 네 몸과 같이 사랑하라’ 는 계명이다. 이 두 계명보다 더 큰 계명은 없다.”
32 그러자 그 율법학자는 “선생님, 옳습니다. 하나님은 한 분이시며 그 외에 다른 신은 없다는 말씀이 맞습니다.
33 그리고 마음을 다하고 [h]뜻을 다하고 힘을 다하여 하나님을 사랑하는 것과 이웃을 자기 몸과 같이 사랑하는 것이 [i]짐승을 불에 태워 바치는 모든 제물과 그 밖의 여러 제물보다 낫습니다” 하고 대답하였다.
34 예수님은 그가 지혜롭게 대답하는 것을 보시고 “네게는 하나님의 나라가 멀지 않다” 하고 말씀하셨다. 그 후부터는 감히 예수님께 묻는 사람이 없었다.
35 예수님은 성전에서 가르치실 때 이렇게 말씀하셨다. “왜 율법학자들이 그리스도를 다윗의 후손이라고 하느냐?
36 다윗이 성령님의 감동을 받아 [j]‘하나님이 나의 주님에게 말씀하셨다: 내가 네 원수들을 네 발 앞에 굴복시킬 때까지 너는 내 오른편에 앉아 있거라’ 하였다.
37 다윗 자신이 그리스도를 주라고 불렀는데 어떻게 그리스도가 다윗의 후손이 되겠느냐?” 이때 군중들은 예수님의 말씀을 귀담아 듣고 있었다.
38 예수님은 또 이렇게 가르치셨다. “율법학자들을 주의하여라. 그들은 긴 옷을 입고 다니기를 좋아하고 시장에서 인사받는 것과
39 회당의 높은 자리와 잔치 자리의 특석을 좋아한다.
40 그들은 과부의 재산을 가로채고 [k]사람들 앞에서 거룩하게 보이려고 길게 기도한다. 이런 사람들은 더욱 무서운 심판을 받게 될 것이다.”
41 예수님은 헌금함 맞은편에 앉아서 사람들이 헌금하는 것을 보고 계셨다. 여러 부자들이 와서 저마다 많은 돈을 넣는데
42 한 가난한 과부는 [l]렙돈 두 푼 곧 한 고드란트를 넣었다.
43 그러자 예수님은 제자들을 가까이 불러 말씀하셨다. “내가 분명히 말하지만 이 가난한 과부가 헌금함에 돈을 넣은 다른 모든 사람보다 더 많이 헌금하였다.
44 그들은 모두 넉넉한 데서 헌금하였으나 이 과부는 가난한 중에서도 자기 생활비 전부를 바쳤다.”

The Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers(A)
12 Then (B)He began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard and set a hedge around it, dug a place for the wine vat and built a tower. And he leased it to [a]vinedressers and went into a far country. 2 Now at vintage-time he sent a servant to the vinedressers, that he might receive some of the fruit of the vineyard from the vinedressers. 3 And they took him and beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4 Again he sent them another servant, [b]and at him they threw stones, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated. 5 And again he sent another, and him they killed; and many others, (C)beating some and killing some. 6 Therefore still having one son, his beloved, he also sent him to them last, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ 7 But those [c]vinedressers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 8 So they took him and (D)killed him and cast him out of the vineyard.
9 “Therefore what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vinedressers, and give the vineyard to others. 10 Have you not even read this Scripture:
(E)‘The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.
11 This was the Lord’s doing,
And it is marvelous in our eyes’?”
12 (F)And they sought to lay hands on Him, but feared the multitude, for they knew He had spoken the parable against them. So they left Him and went away.
The Pharisees: Is It Lawful to Pay Taxes to Caesar?(G)
13 (H)Then they sent to Him some of the Pharisees and the Herodians, to catch Him in His words. 14 When they had come, they said to Him, “Teacher, we know that You are true, and [d]care about no one; for You do not [e]regard the person of men, but teach the (I)way of God in truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? 15 Shall we pay, or shall we not pay?”
But He, knowing their (J)hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test Me? Bring Me a denarius that I may see it.” 16 So they brought it.
And He said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?” They said to Him, “Caesar’s.”
17 And Jesus answered and said to them, [f]“Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to (K)God the things that are God’s.”
And they marveled at Him.
The Sadducees: What About the Resurrection?(L)
18 (M)Then some Sadducees, (N)who say there is no resurrection, came to Him; and they asked Him, saying: 19 “Teacher, (O)Moses wrote to us that if a man’s brother dies, and leaves his wife behind, and leaves no children, his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother. 20 Now there were seven brothers. The first took a wife; and dying, he left no offspring. 21 And the second took her, and he died; nor did he leave any offspring. And the third likewise. 22 So the seven had her and left no offspring. Last of all the woman died also. 23 Therefore, in the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be? For all seven had her as wife.”
24 Jesus answered and said to them, “Are you not therefore [g]mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God? 25 For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but (P)are like angels in heaven. 26 But concerning the dead, that they (Q)rise, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the burning bush passage, how God spoke to him, saying, (R)‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? 27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living. You are therefore greatly [h]mistaken.”
The Scribes: Which Is the First Commandment of All?(S)
28 (T)Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, [i]perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him, “Which is the [j]first commandment of all?”
29 Jesus answered him, “The [k]first of all the commandments is: (U)‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 And you shall (V)love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ [l]This is the first commandment. 31 And the second, like it, is this: (W)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than (X)these.”
32 So the scribe said to Him, “Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, (Y)and there is no other but He. 33 And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, [m]with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, (Z)is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
34 Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.”
(AA)But after that no one dared question Him.
Jesus: How Can David Call His Descendant Lord?(AB)
35 (AC)Then Jesus answered and said, while He taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David? 36 For David himself said (AD)by the Holy Spirit:
(AE)‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” ’
37 Therefore David himself calls Him ‘Lord’; how is He then his (AF)Son?”
And the common people heard Him gladly.
Beware of the Scribes(AG)
38 Then (AH)He said to them in His teaching, (AI)“Beware of the scribes, who desire to go around in long robes, (AJ)love greetings in the marketplaces, 39 the (AK)best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts, 40 (AL)who devour widows’ houses, and [n]for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
The Widow’s Two Mites(AM)
41 (AN)Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money (AO)into the treasury. And many who were rich put in much. 42 Then one poor widow came and threw in two [o]mites, which make a [p]quadrans. 43 So He called His disciples to Himself and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you that (AP)this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury; 44 for they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had, (AQ)her whole livelihood.”

The Parable of the Tenants(A)
12 Jesus then began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard.(B) He put a wall around it, dug a pit for the winepress and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place. 2 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants to collect from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 But they seized him, beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4 Then he sent another servant to them; they struck this man on the head and treated him shamefully. 5 He sent still another, and that one they killed. He sent many others; some of them they beat, others they killed.
6 “He had one left to send, a son, whom he loved. He sent him last of all,(C) saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
7 “But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 8 So they took him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
9 “What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others. 10 Haven’t you read this passage of Scripture:
“‘The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;(D)
11 the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes’[a]?”(E)
12 Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest him because they knew he had spoken the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd;(F) so they left him and went away.(G)
Paying the Imperial Tax to Caesar(H)
13 Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians(I) to Jesus to catch him(J) in his words. 14 They came to him and said, “Teacher, we know that you are a man of integrity. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay the imperial tax[b] to Caesar or not? 15 Should we pay or shouldn’t we?”
But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” 16 They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”
“Caesar’s,” they replied.
17 Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”(K)
And they were amazed at him.
Marriage at the Resurrection(L)
18 Then the Sadducees,(M) who say there is no resurrection,(N) came to him with a question. 19 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.(O) 20 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died without leaving any children. 21 The second one married the widow, but he also died, leaving no child. It was the same with the third. 22 In fact, none of the seven left any children. Last of all, the woman died too. 23 At the resurrection[c] whose wife will she be, since the seven were married to her?”
24 Jesus replied, “Are you not in error because you do not know the Scriptures(P) or the power of God? 25 When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.(Q) 26 Now about the dead rising—have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the account of the burning bush, how God said to him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’[d]?(R) 27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”
The Greatest Commandment(S)
28 One of the teachers of the law(T) came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”
29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.[e] 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’[f](U) 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[g](V) There is no commandment greater than these.”
32 “Well said, teacher,” the man replied. “You are right in saying that God is one and there is no other but him.(W) 33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”(X)
34 When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.”(Y) And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.(Z)
Whose Son Is the Messiah?(AA)(AB)
35 While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts,(AC) he asked, “Why do the teachers of the law say that the Messiah is the son of David?(AD) 36 David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit,(AE) declared:
37 David himself calls him ‘Lord.’ How then can he be his son?”
The large crowd(AG) listened to him with delight.
Warning Against the Teachers of the Law
38 As he taught, Jesus said, “Watch out for the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and be greeted with respect in the marketplaces, 39 and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.(AH) 40 They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”
The Widow’s Offering(AI)
41 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put(AJ) and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. 42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents.
43 Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. 44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”(AK)

The Parable of the Tenants
12 (A)And he began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted (B)a vineyard (C)and put a fence around it and dug a pit for the winepress and built a tower, and (D)leased it to tenants and (E)went into another country. 2 When the season came, he sent a servant[a] to the tenants to get from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 (F)And they took him and beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4 (G)Again (H)he sent to them another servant, and (I)they struck him on the head and (J)treated him shamefully. 5 (K)And he sent another, and him they killed. And so with many others: some they beat, and some they killed. 6 He had still one other, (L)a beloved son. (M)Finally he sent him to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ 7 But those tenants said to one another, (N)‘This is the heir. Come, (O)let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 8 And they took him and killed him and (P)threw him out of the vineyard. 9 What will the owner of the vineyard do? (Q)He will (R)come and destroy the tenants and (S)give the vineyard to others. 10 (T)Have you not read (U)this Scripture:
(V)“‘The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;[b]
11 this was the Lord's doing,
and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”
12 And (W)they were seeking to arrest him (X)but feared the people, for they perceived that he had told the parable against them. So they (Y)left him and went away.
Paying Taxes to Caesar
13 (Z)And they sent to him some of (AA)the Pharisees and some of (AB)the Herodians, to (AC)trap him in his talk. 14 And they came and said to him, “Teacher, (AD)we know that you are true and do not care about anyone's opinion. For (AE)you are not swayed by appearances,[c] but truly teach (AF)the way of God. Is it lawful to pay (AG)taxes to (AH)Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not?” 15 But, knowing (AI)their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why (AJ)put me to the test? Bring me (AK)a denarius[d] and let me look at it.” 16 And they brought one. And he said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” They said to him, “Caesar's.” 17 Jesus said to them, (AL)“Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.” And they marveled at him.
The Sadducees Ask About the Resurrection
18 And (AM)Sadducees came to him, (AN)who say that there is no resurrection. And they asked him a question, saying, 19 “Teacher, Moses wrote for us that (AO)if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife, but leaves no child, the man[e] must take the widow and raise up offspring for his brother. 20 There were seven brothers; the first took a wife, and when he died left no offspring. 21 And the second took her, and died, leaving no offspring. And the third likewise. 22 And the seven left no offspring. Last of all the woman also died. 23 In the resurrection, when they rise again, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as wife.”
24 Jesus said to them, “Is this not the reason you are wrong, because (AP)you know neither the Scriptures nor (AQ)the power of God? 25 For when they rise from the dead, they neither (AR)marry nor (AS)are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. 26 And as for the dead being raised, (AT)have you not read in (AU)the book of Moses, in (AV)the passage about the bush, how God spoke to him, saying, (AW)‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? 27 He is not God of the dead, but of the living. You are quite wrong.”
The Great Commandment
28 (AX)And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?” 29 Jesus answered, “The most important is, (AY)‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, (AZ)the Lord is one. 30 And 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.’ 31 (BA)The second is this: (BB)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment (BC)greater than these.” 32 And the scribe said to him, “You are right, Teacher. You have truly said that (BD)he is one, and (BE)there is no other besides him. 33 And to love him with all the heart and with all (BF)the understanding and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, (BG)is much more than all (BH)whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” 34 And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” (BI)And after that no one dared to ask him any more questions.
Whose Son Is the Christ?
35 (BJ)And as (BK)Jesus taught in the temple, he said, “How can the scribes say that (BL)the Christ is the son of David? 36 David himself, (BM)in the Holy Spirit, declared,
(BN)“‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
until I put your enemies (BO)under your feet.”’
37 David himself calls him Lord. So (BP)how is he his son?” And the great throng (BQ)heard him gladly.
Beware of the Scribes
38 (BR)And in his teaching he said, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes and like greetings in the marketplaces 39 and have the best seats in the synagogues and (BS)the places of honor at feasts, 40 (BT)who devour widows' houses and (BU)for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation.”
The Widow's Offering
41 (BV)And he sat down opposite (BW)the treasury and watched the people (BX)putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums. 42 And a poor widow came and put in two (BY)small copper coins, which make a penny.[f] 43 And he called his disciples to him and said to them, “Truly, I say to you, (BZ)this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. 44 For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her (CA)poverty has put in everything she had, all (CB)she had to live on.”

Hoffnung für Alle
Vom Weinbergbesitzer und den Pächtern (Matthäus 21,33‒46; Lukas 20,9‒19)
12 Dann erzählte Jesus ihnen ein Gleichnis: »Ein Mann legte einen Weinberg an, zäunte ihn ein, stellte eine Weinpresse auf und baute einen Wachturm. Dann verpachtete er den Weinberg an einige Weinbauern und reiste ins Ausland.
2 Zur Zeit der Weinlese beauftragte er einen Knecht, den vereinbarten Anteil an der Ernte abzuholen. 3 Aber die Weinbauern packten den Knecht, schlugen ihn nieder und jagten ihn mit leeren Händen davon. 4 Da schickte der Besitzer einen zweiten Boten. Dem schlugen sie den Kopf blutig und verhöhnten ihn. 5 Den dritten Boten des Weinbergbesitzers brachten sie um. Immer wieder versuchte der Besitzer, zu seinem Ernteanteil zu kommen. Doch alle, die in seinem Auftrag hingingen, wurden verprügelt oder sogar getötet.
6 Nun blieb nur noch einer übrig: sein einziger Sohn, den er sehr liebte. Ihn schickte er zuletzt. ›Vor meinem Sohn werden sie Achtung haben‹, sagte er sich. 7 Aber die Weinbauern waren sich einig: ›Das ist der Erbe! Los, den bringen wir um, und dann gehört der Weinberg uns.‹ 8 Sie packten ihn, brachten ihn um und warfen ihn zum Weinberg hinaus.
9 Was, meint ihr, wird der Besitzer jetzt wohl tun? Er wird selbst kommen, die Weinbauern töten und den Weinberg an andere verpachten.
10 Habt ihr nicht die folgende Schriftstelle gelesen:
›Der Stein, den die Bauarbeiter weggeworfen haben, weil sie ihn für unbrauchbar hielten, ist nun zum Grundstein des ganzen Hauses geworden. 11 Was keiner für möglich gehalten hat, das tut der Herr vor unseren Augen‹[a]?«
12 Am liebsten hätten die obersten Priester, die Schriftgelehrten und die führenden Männer des Volkes Jesus festgenommen. Sie hatten verstanden, dass er in diesem Gleichnis von ihnen gesprochen hatte. Aber sie wagten sich nicht an ihn heran, weil sie vor dem Volk Angst hatten. So ließen sie ihn in Ruhe und gingen weg.
Die Frage nach der Steuer (Matthäus 22,15‒22; Lukas 20,20‒26)
13 Danach schickten sie einige Pharisäer und Anhänger von König Herodes zu Jesus, um ihn mit seinen eigenen Worten in eine Falle zu locken.
14 »Lehrer«, sagten sie scheinheilig, »wir wissen, dass es dir allein um die Wahrheit geht. Du redest den Leuten nicht nach dem Mund – ganz gleich, wie viel Ansehen sie besitzen. Nein, du sagst uns frei heraus, wie wir nach Gottes Willen leben sollen. Deshalb sage uns: Ist es eigentlich Gottes Wille, dass wir dem römischen Kaiser Steuern zahlen? Sollen wir sie bezahlen oder nicht?«
15 Jesus durchschaute ihre Falschheit und sagte: »Warum wollt ihr mir eine Falle stellen? Zeigt mir ein Geldstück!« 16 Sie gaben ihm eine römische Münze. Er fragte sie: »Wessen Bild und Name sind hier eingeprägt?« Sie antworteten: »Die des Kaisers!« 17 Da sagte Jesus zu ihnen: »Nun, dann gebt dem Kaiser, was ihm zusteht, und gebt Gott, was ihm gehört!« Seine Zuhörer waren überrascht: Diese Antwort hatten sie nicht erwartet.
Werden die Toten auferstehen? (Matthäus 22,23‒33; Lukas 20,27‒38)
18 Später kamen einige Sadduzäer zu Jesus. Diese Leute behaupten, es gebe keine Auferstehung der Toten. Sie fragten ihn: 19 »Lehrer, Mose hat uns im Gesetz gesagt: ›Wenn ein verheirateter Mann stirbt und seine Frau ohne Kinder hinterlässt, dann muss sein Bruder die Witwe heiraten und dafür sorgen, dass der Verstorbene doch noch einen Nachkommen erhält.‹[b]
20 Nun gab es da sieben Brüder. Der erste heiratete und starb ohne Nachkommen. 21 Da heiratete der zweite Bruder die Witwe. Auch er starb kinderlos, und ebenso der dritte. 22 So ging es weiter, bis die Frau mit allen sieben verheiratet gewesen war, ohne dass sie Kinder bekommen hätte. Schließlich starb auch die Frau. 23 Wessen Frau wird sie nun nach der Auferstehung sein? Schließlich waren ja alle sieben Brüder mit ihr verheiratet.«
24 Jesus antwortete: »Liegt euer Irrtum nicht darin, dass ihr weder die Heilige Schrift noch die Macht Gottes kennt? 25 Wenn die Toten auferstehen, werden sie nicht mehr wie hier auf der Erde heiraten. Es wird ganz anders sein: Sie sind dann wie die Engel Gottes im Himmel. 26 Was nun die Auferstehung der Toten überhaupt betrifft: Habt ihr nicht bei Mose gelesen, wie Gott am brennenden Dornbusch zu ihm sagte: ›Ich bin der Gott Abrahams, Isaaks und Jakobs‹[c]? 27 Er ist doch nicht ein Gott der Toten, sondern der Lebenden. Ihr seid völlig im Irrtum!«
Was ist das wichtigste Gebot? (Matthäus 22,34‒40; Lukas 10,25‒28)
28 Ein Schriftgelehrter hatte diesem Wortwechsel zugehört und war von der Antwort beeindruckt, die Jesus den Sadduzäern gegeben hatte. Er ging zu ihm hin und fragte ihn: »Welches ist von allen Geboten Gottes das wichtigste?« 29 Jesus antwortete: »Dies ist das wichtigste Gebot: ›Hört, ihr Israeliten! Der Herr ist unser Gott, der Herr allein. 30 Ihr sollt ihn von ganzem Herzen lieben, mit ganzer Hingabe, mit eurem ganzen Verstand und mit all eurer Kraft.‹[d] 31 Ebenso wichtig ist das andere Gebot: ›Liebe deinen Mitmenschen wie dich selbst.‹[e] Kein anderes Gebot ist wichtiger als diese beiden.«
32 Darauf meinte der Schriftgelehrte: »Richtig, Lehrer. Das ist wahr: Es gibt nur einen Gott und keinen anderen außer ihm. 33 Ihn zu lieben von ganzem Herzen, mit ganzem Verstand und mit aller Kraft und auch seinen Mitmenschen so zu lieben wie sich selbst, das ist viel mehr wert als all die Brandopfer und übrigen Opfer, die wir ihm bringen.« 34 Jesus sah, wie weise der Mann ihm geantwortet hatte, und sagte zu ihm: »Du bist nicht weit von Gottes Reich entfernt.« Danach wagte niemand mehr, Jesus weitere Fragen zu stellen.
Wer ist der Christus? (Matthäus 22,41‒46; Lukas 20,41‒44)
35 Als Jesus im Tempel lehrte, stellte er die Frage: »Wie können die Schriftgelehrten behaupten, der Christus, der von Gott erwählte Retter, sei ein Nachkomme von König David? 36 David selbst hat doch, geleitet vom Heiligen Geist, gesagt:
›Gott, der Herr, sprach zu meinem Herrn: Setze dich auf den Ehrenplatz an meiner rechten Seite, bis ich dir alle deine Feinde unterworfen habe und du deinen Fuß auf ihren Nacken setzt!‹[f]
37 Wenn David den Christus also ›Herr‹ nennt, wie kann er dann Davids Nachkomme sein?«
Die Heuchelei der Schriftgelehrten (Matthäus 23,5‒7; Lukas 20,45‒47)
Inzwischen hatte sich eine große Menschenmenge im Tempel versammelt. Alle hörten Jesus gespannt zu. 38 Er fuhr fort, sie zu lehren, und sagte: »Hütet euch vor den Schriftgelehrten! Sie laufen gern in langen Gewändern herum und erwarten, dass die Leute sie auf der Straße ehrfurchtsvoll grüßen. 39 In der Synagoge sitzen sie am liebsten in der ersten Reihe, und bei den Festen wollen sie die Ehrenplätze bekommen. 40 Gierig reißen sie den Besitz der Witwen an sich, und ihre langen Gebete sollen bei den Leuten Eindruck schinden. Gottes Strafe wird sie besonders hart treffen.«
Viel Geld – aber kein Opfer (Lukas 21,1‒4)
41 Jesus setzte sich nun in die Nähe des Opferkastens im Tempel und beobachtete, wie die Leute ihr Geld einwarfen. Viele Reiche gaben hohe Beträge. 42 Dann aber kam eine arme Witwe und warf zwei der kleinsten Münzen in den Opferkasten. 43 Jesus rief seine Jünger zu sich und sagte: »Ich versichere euch: Diese arme Witwe hat mehr gegeben als alle anderen. 44 Die Reichen haben nur etwas von ihrem Überfluss abgegeben, aber diese Frau ist arm und gab alles, was sie hatte – sogar das, was sie dringend zum Leben gebraucht hätte.«
