I've often wondered about that coin.
Here are the accounts from the KJV Bible.
If anybody knows about the earliest copy of G-Mark, its language and its best translation in to English then that would be most helpful.
Here we go:-
MATTHEW
{22:17} Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
{22:18} But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, [ye] hypocrites?
{22:19} Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
{22:20} And he saith unto them, Whose [is] this image and superscription?
{22:21} They say unto him, Caesar’s. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things
which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s.
{22:22} When they had heard [these words,] they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.
MARK
{12:14} And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
{12:15} Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see [it. ]
{12:16} And they brought [it.] And he saith unto them, Whose [is] this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar’s.
{12:17} And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled at him.
LUKE
{20:21} And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person [of any,] but teachest the way of God truly:
{20:22} Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no?
{20:23} But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?
{20:24} Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Caesar’s.
{20:25} And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar’s, and unto God the
things which be God’s. {20:26} And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
Now, for any who are interested in a subject like this, can you tell me who is the figure featured on the obverse of this coin which is from that time, that land, that city and that Temple?
Let's see if I can work the apps here..... here is hoping.
