(September, 22-2016 on Thursday)
Matthew 22: 46 No one could say a word in
reply, and from that day on no one dared to ask Him any more questions. (1)
147
44 “‘The
Lord said to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’ (8)
45 If
then David calls Him ‘Lord,’ how can He be his son?”
369
35 One of them, an expert in the law, tested Him with this question:
(8)
36 “Teacher, which is the
greatest Commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord
your GOD with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’
147
26 The
same thing happened to the second and third brother, right on down to the seventh. (8)
27 Finally, the woman
died.
28 Now then, at the
resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven, since all of them
were married to her?”
147
17 Tell
us then, what is Your opinion? Is it right to pay the imperial tax to
Caesar or not?” (8)
18 But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said,
“You hypocrites,
why are you trying to trap Me?
19 Show
Me the coin used for paying the tax.”
They brought him a denarius,
147
8 “Then
He said to His servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not
deserve to come. (8)
9 So
go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.’
10 So
the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could
find, the bad as well as
the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.
147
Whose Son Is the
Messiah?
41 While
the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, (5)
42 “What do you think about the Messiah? Whose Son is He?” “The Son of David,”
they replied.
43 He said to them, “How is it then that David, speaking by the Spirit, calls Him
‘Lord’? For He says,
147
32 ‘I am the GOD of Abraham, the GOD of Isaac, and
the GOD of Jacob’? He is not the GOD of the
dead but of the Living.” (5)
33 When the crowds
heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.
The Greatest Commandment
34 Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together.
147
23 That
same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him with a
question.
(5)
24 “Teacher,” they
said, “Moses told us that if a man dies without having children, his brother
must marry the widow and raise up offspring for him.
25 Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one
married and died, and since he had no children, he left his wife to his
brother.
147
14 “For many are invited, but few are chosen.”
(5)
Paying the Imperial
Tax to Caesar
15 Then the Pharisees
went out and laid plans to trap Him in His Words.
16 They sent their
disciples to Him along with the Herodians. “Teacher,” they said, “we know that
You are a Man of integrity and that you teach the way of GOD in accordance with
the truth. You aren’t swayed by others, because You pay no attention to who
they are.
147
5 “But
they paid no attention and went off—one to his field, another to his business.
(5)
6 The rest seized His servants,
mistreated them and killed them.
7 The King was enraged. He sent His
army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.
147
38 This
is the first and greatest Commandment.
(2)
39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
40 All the Law and the Prophets hang
on these Two
Commandments.”
147
Marriage at the
Resurrection
29 Jesus
replied, “You are in error
because you do not know the
Scriptures or the Power
of GOD. (2)
30 At
the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.
31 But
about the resurrection of the dead—have you not read what GOD said to you,
147
20 and
He asked them, “Whose image is
this? And whose inscription?”
(2)
21 “Caesar’s,” they
replied. Then He said to them, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to GOD what is GOD’s.”
22 When they heard this,
they were amazed. So they left Him and went away.
147
11 “But
when the King came in to see the guests, He noticed a man there who was not
wearing wedding clothes. (2)
12 He asked, ‘How did you get in here without wedding clothes,
friend?’
The man was speechless.
13 “Then
the King told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness,
where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
147
The Parable of the
Wedding Banquet
1 Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying:
2 “The Kingdom of heaven is like a King who
prepared a wedding banquet for His Son. (2)
3 He sent His servants to those
who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to
come.
4 “Then He sent some more servants
and said, ‘Tell those who have
been invited that I have prepared My dinner: My oxen and fattened cattle have
been butchered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet.’
