1. Why do Yashua and the rest of the scriptures always mention tax collectors in context with sinners? (see a common answer that does not hold water)

2. Why did Yashua call them “hypocrites” and where did he show them their hypocrisy? (see a common answer that does not hold water)

3. Why did the Pharisees think they could have Yashua arrested?


• Because the Pharisees were ignorant of the law of Yahweh
  
• It was unlawful to pay tribute to Caesar
  
• Other: (Please explain)
  
  
4. Do you think Yashua would carry a coin that claimed Caesar was god?

5. Why do you think the Pharisees “marveled at his answer”?

6. Show me in the law of Yahweh (Genesis through Deuteronomy) where it would imply that an Israelite owes tribute to any government other than the theocracy called “Israel” that Yahweh set up.

7. Please explain to me the trap. For the Pharisees to “trap” Yashua, either answer would have to be a “win” for the Pharisees.
