The Temple Tax
24After Jesus and his disciples arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two–drachma tax came to Peter and asked, “Doesn't your teacher pay the temple taxGreek the two drachmas?”

25“Yes, he does,” he replied.
When Peter came into the house, Jesus was the first to speak. “What do you think, Simon?” he asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes–from their own sons or from others?”

26“From others,” Peter answered.
“Then the sons are exempt,” Jesus said to him.

27“But so that we may not offend them, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four–drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.”
