Luke 20:1-26

Summary

Tensions rise between Jesus and the religious leaders after he drives swindlers out of the temple court. They question Jesus' authority, but Jesus sees through their pseudo-seeking and refuses to answer them. Then Jesus tells the parable of the evil vintners, who beat the workers and killed the son of the vineyard owner. Finally the religious leaders try to trap Jesus in a question about taxes, but He wisely tells them to give to Caesar what is his and give to God what is His. The question is this: will we submit to God's sovereignty in our lives, or will we continue to refuse Him, like the religious leaders in Jesus' day?
