Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
a penny: Matthew 18:28, Matthew 20:2
image: This was the head of the emperor; the superscription his titles. Julius Cesar was the first who caused his image to be struck on the Roman coin; and Tiberius was emperor at this time. This therefore was a denarius of Cesar, ×“×™× ×¨× ×§×™×¡×¨ ×× ×”, as it is termed in the Talmud; and consequently this was respecting the tribute required by the Roman government.
Caesar's: Luke 20:22, Luke 2:1, Luke 3:1, Luke 23:2, Acts 11:28, Acts 25:8-12, Acts 26:32, Philippians 4:22
Reciprocal: Numbers 24:24 - and shall afflict Eber Matthew 22:20 - superscription Mark 12:16 - image

they answered and said, Caesar's; very likely Tiberius Caesar's, who was at that time emperor of Rome; :- and
