[it]. |
Mark 12:15
_ _ Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy “their wickedness” (Matthew 22:18); “their craftiness” (Luke 20:23). The malignity of their hearts took the form of craft, pretending what they did not feel an anxious desire to be guided aright in a matter which to a scrupulous few might seem a question of some difficulty. Seeing perfectly through this,
_ _ He said unto them, Why tempt ye me? “hypocrites!”
_ _ bring me a penny that I may see it “the tribute money” (Matthew 22:19). |
- knowing:
Matthew 22:18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, [ye] hypocrites? Luke 20:23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me? John 2:24-25 But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all [men], ... And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man. John 21:17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. Hebrews 4:13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things [are] naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Revelation 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

- Why:
Mark 10:2 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away [his] wife? tempting him. Ezekiel 17:2 Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable unto the house of Israel; Acts 5:9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband [are] at the door, and shall carry thee out. 1 Corinthians 10:9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

- a penny:
- "Valuing of our money, sevenpence halfpenny, as
Matthew 18:28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took [him] by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest. , marg."
