    Episode 40: How Will Marrage Work In Heaven?

    In Mark 12:18-27, Jesus is confronted by the Sadducees, a group of Jewish religious leaders who did not believe in the resurrection. They present him with a hypothetical scenario involving marriage and the afterlife to challenge his teachings. The scenario revolves around a woman who marries seven brothers successively due to the Levirate marriage custom, where if a man dies childless, his brother should marry the widow to ensure descendants for the deceased.

    Episode 39: The Tax to Caesar

    In Mark 12:13-17, Pharisees and Herodians attempt to trap Jesus with a question about paying taxes to Caesar. They ask if it's lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, hoping Jesus will either endorse Rome (angering Jewish nationalists) or reject it (prompting charges of rebellion against Rome). Jesus, aware of their malice, responds by asking whose image and inscription are on a coin.
