(APB) Luke 20 : 1 And it happened on one of the days while he was teaching the people in The Temple and evangelizing, there stood about him Chief Priests and Scribes with Elders.
(APB) Luke 20 : 2 They were saying to him, "Tell us by what authority do you do these things, and who is he who has given you this authority?”
(APB) Luke 20 : 3 Yeshua answered and he said to them, "I shall also ask you a question and you answer me.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 4 "Was the baptism of Yohannan from Heaven, or from men?”
(APB) Luke 20 : 5 But they were counseling among themselves and they were saying, "If we say, 'From Heaven', he will say to us, 'And why did you not believe him?' "
(APB) Luke 20 : 6 "But if we say, 'From men', all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that Yohannan is a Prophet.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 7 And they said to him, "We do not know from where it was.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 8 Yeshua said to them, "Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 9 And he began to tell the people this parable: "A certain man planted a vineyard and handed it over to laborers and he went abroad for a long time.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 10 And at the season he sent his servant to the workers to give him some of the fruits of the vineyard, but the workers beat him and they sent him away stripped.
(APB) Luke 20 : 11 And he added and sent another servant, but they beat that one also and they abused him and they sent him away naked.
(APB) Luke 20 : 12 But he added and sent a third, but they also wounded that one and cast him out.
(APB) Luke 20 : 13 The owner of the vineyard said, 'What shall I do? I shall send my beloved son. Doubtless they will see him and they will be ashamed.'
(APB) Luke 20 : 14 "But when the workers saw him, they were counseling among themselves and they were saying, 'This is the heir; come let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.' "
(APB) Luke 20 : 15 "And they cast him out of the vineyard and murdered him. What therefore will the owner of the vineyard do to them?”
(APB) Luke 20 : 16 "He shall come and destroy those workers, and he shall give the vineyard to others”; but when they heard, they said, "May this not be!”
(APB) Luke 20 : 17 But he gazed upon them and he said, "And what is this that is written: 'The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner'”?
(APB) Luke 20 : 18 "And everything that falls on that stone shall be broken, and it will scatter everything whatsoever upon which it will fall.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 19 But the Chief Priests and the Scribes were seeking to lay hands upon him at that hour, and they were afraid of the people, for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them.
(APB) Luke 20 : 20 And they sent spies who imitated righteous men to catch him in discourse and to deliver him to the Judge and to the authority of the Governor.
(APB) Luke 20 : 21 And they asked him, and they were saying to him, "Teacher, we know that you are speaking and teaching correctly, and you do not show favoritism, but you teach the way of God in truth.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 22 "Is it legal for us to give poll tax to Caesar or not?”
(APB) Luke 20 : 23 "But he perceived their cunning and he said, "Why are you testing me?”
(APB) Luke 20 : 24 "Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription is on it?” They said, "Caesar's.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 25 Yeshua said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 26 And they could not lay hold of any word from him before the people, and they were amazed at his answer, and they kept silent.
(APB) Luke 20 : 27 But some of the Sadducees came, those who say that there is no resurrection, and they asked him,
(APB) Luke 20 : 28 And they were saying to him, "Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man dies and his brother has a wife without sons, his brother shall take his wife, and he shall raise up a son to his brother.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 29 "But there were seven brothers and the first took a wife and he died without sons.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 30 "And the second took her for his wife, and he died without sons.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 31 "And the third again took her and thus also the seven of them, and they died and left no sons.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 32 "And finally the woman died also.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 33 In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be, for the seven of them married her?
(APB) Luke 20 : 34 Yeshua said to them, "The sons of this world take women and women are given to men.
(APB) Luke 20 : 35 But those who are worthy for that world and for the resurrection from among the dead are not taking women, neither are women taking men.
(APB) Luke 20 : 36 For neither can they die again, for they are like The Angels, and they are the children of God because they are the children of the resurrection.
(APB) Luke 20 : 37 But that the dead rise, Moses also declared, for he recounts at the bush, when THE LORD JEHOVAH said, "The God of Abraham and the God of Isaaq and the God of Jaqob.
(APB) Luke 20 : 38 But he was not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all of them were alive to him.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 39 And some of the Scribes answered, and they were saying to him, "Teacher, you have spoken beautifully.”
(APB) Luke 20 : 40 And they dared not ask him about anything again.
(APB) Luke 20 : 41 He said to them, "How do the Scribes say about The Messiah that he is the son of David?
(APB) Luke 20 : 42 And David said in the book of Psalms, 'THE LORD JEHOVAH said to my Lord, "Seat yourself at my right hand,
(APB) Luke 20 : 43 Until I put your enemies under your feet.'
(APB) Luke 20 : 44 If, therefore, David called him, 'my Lord', how is he his son?”
(APB) Luke 20 : 45 And while all the people heard, he said to his disciples:
(APB) Luke 20 : 46 "Beware the Scribes who like to walk in robes and love greetings in the markets and first class seats in the synagogues and first class rooms at banquets.
(APB) Luke 20 : 47 They who consume widows houses for an offering of prolonging their prayers; those shall receive an extreme judgment.”
