The Tribute Money Miraculously Provided
78. Matt 17:24-27
24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that
received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not
your master pay tribute? 25 He saith, Yes. And when he was
come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What
thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take
custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers? 26
Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him,
Then are the children free. 27 Notwithstanding, lest we
should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook,
and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast
opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that
take, and give unto them for me and thee.
