Luke 20:23First Nations VersionCreator Sets Free (Jesus) could see right through them. See the chapter |
The Separated Ones (Pharisees) and Upright Ones (Sadducees) came again to Creator Sets Free (Jesus) to put him to the test and find something to accuse him with. “Show us a powerful sign from the spirit-world above,” they demanded, “to prove to us who you are.” Creator Sets Free (Jesus) was growing weary of their ongoing attacks, but as always he was able to answer them with great wisdom.
“Show me one of their silver coins.” They found a silver coin and handed it to him. He took a good long look, holding it up to the sky to see it clearly. Then he turned the face of the coin toward them. “Whose image and words are carved into this coin?” he asked. “The Ruler of the People of Iron (Caesar),” they answered. He handed the coin back to them.
