The Temple Tax

24 ^cWhen they came to Capernaum, the collectors of ^dthe two-drachma tax went up to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay the tax?” 25 He said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, ^e“What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or ^ftax? From their sons or from others?” 26 And when he said, “From others,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free. 27 However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast a hook and take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth you will find a shekel. ^{▼▼Greek stater, a silver coin worth four drachmas or approximately one shekel} Take that and give it to them for me and for yourself.”
