#6: Peter Says Jesus Pays The Temple Tax And Gets A Miraculous Lesson Is Tax Collecting

Matthew 17:24-27

Chapter 17

24 When they were come to Capernaum, those who collected the didrachmas came to Peter, and said, "Doesn't your teacher pay the didrachma?"

25 He said, "Yes." When he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their sons, or from strangers?"

26 Peter said to him, "From strangers." Jesus said to him, "Therefore the sons are exempt.

27 But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, and cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened his mouth, you will find a stater. Take that, and give it to them for me and you."
