Contextual Overview

²⁰ So they watched Jesus and sent some spies who acted as if they were sincere. They wanted to trap Jesus in saying something wrong so they could hand him over to the authority and power of the governor. ²¹ So the spies asked Jesus, "Teacher, we know that what you say and teach is true. You pay no attention to who people are, and you always teach the truth about God's way. ²² Tell us, is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?" ²³ But Jesus, knowing they were trying to trick him, said, ²⁴ "Show me a coin. Whose image and name are on it?" They said, "Caesar's." ²⁵ Jesus said to them, "Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and give to God the things that are God's." ²⁶ So they were not able to trap Jesus in anything he said in the presence of the people. And being amazed at his answer, they became silent.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they could not take hold of his words before the people,.... Which was what they wanted; that if he had dropped any seditious and treasonable expressions against the government, they might be witnesses against him; or if he had not vindicated the liberties of the people, and the rights of the Jewish nation, these might be exasperated against him, and leave him:

and they marvelled at his answer; which was so formed, as to give them no handle against him either way:

and held their peace; they were silenced, and had nothing to say to him, nor against him, but left him, and went their way.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
