Matthew 22 — Chapter 22

Matthew · Restored Names Edition

1And Yahusha (Jesus) answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,

2The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,

3And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.

4Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.

5But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:

6And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.

7But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

8Then says he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

9Go you therefore into the highways, and as many as you shall find, bid to the marriage.

10So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.

11And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:

12And he says unto him, Friend, how came you in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

13Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

14For many are called, but few are chosen.

15Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.

16And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that you are true, and teach the way of Elohim (God) in truth, neither carest you for any man: for you regard not the person of men.

17Tell us therefore, What thinkest you? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?

18But Yahusha (Jesus) perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt you me, you hypocrites?

19Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.

20And he says unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?

21They say unto him, Cæsar’s. Then says he unto them, Render therefore unto Cæsar the things which are Cæsar’s; and unto Elohim (God) the things that are Elohim's (God’s).

22When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.

23The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,

24Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

25Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:

26Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.

27And last of all the woman died also.

28Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.

29Yahusha (Jesus) answered and said unto them, You do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of Elohim (God).

30For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of Elohim (God) in heaven.

31But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken unto you by Elohim (God), saying,

32I am the Elohim (God) of Abraham, and the Elohim (God) of Isaac, and the Elohim (God) of Jacob? Elohim (God) is not the Elohim (God) of the dead, but of the living.

33And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.

34But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.

35Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

36Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

37Yahusha (Jesus) said unto him, You shall love Yahuah Elohayka (the Lord thy God) with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.

38This is the first and great commandment.

39And the second is like unto it, You shall love your neighbour as thyself.

40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

41While the Pharisees were gathered together, Yahusha (Jesus) asked them,

42Saying, What think you of Messiah (Christ)? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David.

43He says unto them, How then does David in spirit call him the Lord, saying,

44Yahuah (LORD) said unto my Lord, Sit you on my right hand, till I make your enemies your footstool?

45If David then call him the Lord, how is he his son?

46And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
