Daily Bible Reading—March 2024, God’s Guiding Word: PrayerMuestra

March 25
Introduction
Mark 12:1–27: Jesus continues teaching by means of a parable about tenants in a vineyard. The religious leaders question him about paying taxes and about rising from death.
Today’s Key Verse: Mark 12:17a
So Jesus said, “Well, then, pay to the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor, and pay to God what belongs to God.”
Reflect
The vineyard is a conventional metaphor for Israel, with God as the planter. How do you interpret this parable? How did the religious leaders react? Jewish people in Palestine had to pay taxes to the Romans, who controlled their land. The emperor was the highest Roman leader. If Jesus had told the Pharisees that they didn’t have to pay taxes, then Jesus could have been accused of rebelling against the Romans. How did Jesus respond to the question about paying taxes? Reread verse 17. What is your understanding of this verse?
Pray
Holy Jesus, beloved Son of God, plant your teachings within my heart. Nurture my faith so that I may serve you each day as a fruitful disciple. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Mark 12:28–44: Jesus teaches about the most important commandment and commends a poor widow for her offering.
