Jesus' response steered clear of their trap and turned the question on its head. "Render" in the Bible: Matthew 22:21 http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matt.22.21&version=NIV 2009-07-21T15:25:18-05:00 The NIV tranlates "Render" as give, but the sentiment remains. We are to render unto Caesar, or the government, what is his and give what is God's to God.
