Jesus then began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a pit for the winepress and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place.
И Он стал говорить с ними притчами. — Один человек посадил виноградник, обнес его забором, выкопал яму для давильни56 и построил сторожевую башню.57 Он отдал виноградник внаем виноградарям, а сам уехал в чужие края.
Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest him because they knew he had spoken the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd; so they left him and went away.
Когда предводители народа поняли, что эту притчу Иисус рассказал о них, они хотели арестовать Его, но побоялись народа. Поэтому они оставили Его и ушли.
They came to him and said, “Teacher, we know that you are a man of integrity. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay the imperial taxb to Caesar or not?
Подойдя к Иисусу, они сказали: — Учитель! Мы знаем, что Ты Человек честный и не стремишься никому угодить. Ты беспристрастен и истинно учишь пути Божьему. Следует ли платить налог кесарю или нет? Платить нам или не платить?
Should we pay or shouldn’t we?” But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.”
“Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.
— Учитель, Моисей написал, что если у кого-либо умрет брат, оставив жену, но не оставив детей, то он должен жениться на вдове и восстановить род60 своему брату.61
Now about the dead rising — have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the account of the burning bush, how God said to him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’d?
А о том, что мертвые воскресают, разве вы не читали в книге Моисея, в том месте, где говорится о кусте, как Бог сказал Моисею: «Я — Бог Авраама, Бог Исаака и Бог Иакова»?62
One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”
To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.
As he taught, Jesus said, “Watch out for the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and be greeted with respect in the marketplaces,
Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts.
