G2532–καί–kai

When He came into full view of the city, He wept aloud over it, and exclaimed,

Καὶ Kai “And”

"O that at this time thou hadst known--yes even thou--what makes peace possible! But now it is hid from thine eyes.

καί kai “and”καὶ kai “even”

For the time is coming upon thee when thy foes will throw up around thee earthworks and a wall, investing thee and hemming thee in on every side.

καὶ kai “that”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

And they will dash thee to the ground and thy children within thee, and will not leave one stone upon another within thee; because thou hast not recognized the time of thy visitation."

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

Then Jesus entered the Temple and proceeded to drive out the dealers.

Καὶ Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

"It is written," He said, "`And My house shall be the House of Prayer,' but you have made it a robbers' cave."

καὶ kai “And”

And day after day He taught in the Temple, while the High Priests and the Scribes were devising some means of destroying Him, as were also the leading men of the people.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

But they could not find any way of doing it, for the people all hung upon His lips.

καὶ kai “And”

On one of those days while He was teaching the people in the Temple and proclaiming the Good News, the High Priests came upon Him, and the Scribes,

Καὶ Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

together with the Elders, and they asked Him, "Tell us, By what authority are you doing these things? And who is it that gave you this authority?"

καὶ kai “and”

"I also will put a question to you, "He said;

καὶ kai “and”

And they answered that they did not know the origin of it.

καὶ kai “And”

"Nor will I tell you," said Jesus, "by what authority I do these things."

καὶ kai “And”

Then He proceeded to speak a parable to the people. "There was a man," He said, "who planted a vineyard, let it out to vine-dressers, and went abroad for a considerable time.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

At vintage-time he sent a servant to the vine-dressers, for them to give him a share of the crop; but the vine-dressers beat him cruelly and sent him away empty-handed.

καὶ kai “And”

Then he sent a second servant; and him too they beat and ill treated and sent away empty-handed.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

Then again he sent a third; and this one also they wounded and drove away.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “also”

"So they turned him out of the vineyard and murdered him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

καὶ kai “And”

He will come and put these vine-dressers to death, and give the vineyard to others." "God forbid!" exclaimed the hearers.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

At this the Scribes and the High Priests wanted to lay hands on Him, then and there; only they were afraid of the people. For they saw that in this parable He had referred to them.

Καὶ Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

So, after impatiently watching their opportunity, they sent spies who were to act the part of good and honest men, that they might fasten on some expression of His, so as to hand Him over to the ruling power and the Governor's authority.

Καὶ Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

So they put a question to Him. "Rabbi," they said, "we know that you say and teach what is right and that you make no distinctions between one man and another, but teach God's way truly.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

"Show me a shilling; whose likeness and inscription does it bear?" "Caesar's," they said.

καὶ kai “and”

"Pay therefore," He replied, "what is Caesar's to Caesar--and what is God's to God."

καὶ kai “and”

There was nothing here that they could lay hold of before the people, and marvelling at His answer they said no more.
