1And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables and said: 2The kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who made a wedding feast for his son, 3and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast; and they were not willing to come. 4Again, he sent out other servants, saying, Tell those being invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding feast. 5But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business. 6And the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them. 7But when the king heard about it, he was angry. And he sent out his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8Then he said to his servants, The wedding feast is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy. 9Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the wedding feast. 10So those servants went out into the highways and gathered together all whom they found, both evil and good. And the wedding hall was filled with guests. 11But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment. 12So he said to him, Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13And the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14For many are called, but few are chosen. 15Then the Pharisees went and plotted how they might entangle Him in His words. 16And they sent to Him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Teacher, we know that You are true, and teach the way of God in truth; nor do You care about anyone, for You do not regard the person of men. 17Tell us, therefore, what do You think? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? 18But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why do you test Me, hypocrites? 19Show Me the tribute money. So they brought Him a denarius. 20And He said to them, Whose image and inscription is this? 21They said to Him, Caesar’s. And He said to them, Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. 22When they had heard these words, they marveled, and left Him and went their way. 23The same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him and questioned Him, 24saying: Teacher, Moses said that if a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up seed for his brother. 25Now there were with us seven brothers. The first died after he had married, and having no seed, left his wife to his brother. 26Likewise the second also, and the third, even to the seventh. 27Last of all the woman died also. 28Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her. 29Jesus answered and said to them, You are in error, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. 30For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels of God in Heaven. 31But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 33And when the multitudes heard this, they were astonished at His doctrine. 34But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they were gathered together. 35Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying, 36Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law? 37Jesus said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38This is the first and great commandment. 39And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets. 41While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42saying, What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He? They said to Him, The Son of David. 43He said to them, How then does David in the Spirit call Him Lord, saying: 44The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool? 45If David then calls Him Lord, how is He his son? 46And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day on did anyone dare question Him anymore.
