Matthew 22:34–40 “³⁴But when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered themselves together. ³⁵One of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, ³⁶“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” ³⁷And He said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ ³⁸“This is the great and foremost commandment. ³⁹“The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ ⁴⁰“On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.”

Matthew 22:23–33 “²³On that day some Sadducees (who say there is no resurrection) came to Jesus and questioned Him, ²⁴asking, “Teacher, Moses said, ‘If a man dies having no children, his brother as next of kin shall marry his wife, and raise up children for his brother.’ ²⁵“Now there were seven brothers with us; and the first married and died, and having no children left his wife to his brother; ²⁶so also the second, and the third, down to the seventh. ²⁷“Last of all, the woman died. ²⁸“In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had married her.” ²⁹But Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures nor the power of God. ³⁰“For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. ³¹“But regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God: ³²‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.” ³³When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.”

Matthew 22:15–22 “¹⁵Then the Pharisees went and plotted together how they might trap Him in what He said. ¹⁶And they sent their disciples to Him, along with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are truthful and teach the way of God in truth, and defer to no one; for You are not partial to any. ¹⁷“Tell us then, what do You think? Is it lawful to give a poll-tax to Caesar, or not?” ¹⁸But Jesus perceived their malice, and said, “Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites? ¹⁹“Show Me the coin used for the poll-tax.” And they brought Him a denarius. ²⁰And He said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” ²¹They said to Him, “Caesar’s.” Then He said to them, “Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God the things that are God’s.” ²²And hearing this, they were amazed, and leaving Him, they went away.”

Romans 1:14–17 (NASB95) — 14 I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish. 15 So, for my part, I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome. 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.”
