On their arrival in Capernaum, the collectors of the Temple tax came to Peter and asked him,“ Doesn’t your teacher pay the Temple tax?”“ Yes, he does,” Peter replied. Then he went into the house. But before he had a chance to speak, Jesus asked him,“ What do you think, Peter? Do kings tax their own people or the people they have conquered?”“ They tax the people they have conquered,” Peter replied.“ Well, then,” Jesus said,“ the citizens are free!However, we don’t want to offend them, so go down to the lake and throw in a line. Open the mouth of the first fish you catch, and you will find a large silver coin. Take it and pay the tax for both of us.”

Then the Lord said to Moses,“ Whenever you take a census of the people of Israel, each man who is counted must pay a ransom for himself to the Lord. Then no plague will strike the people as you count them.Each person who is counted must give a small piece of silver as a sacred offering to the Lord.( This payment is half a shekel, based on the sanctuary shekel, which equals twenty gerahs.)All who have reached their twentieth birthday must give this sacred offering to the Lord.When this offering is given to the Lord to purify your lives, making you right with him, the rich must not give more than the specified amount, and the poor must not give less.Receive this ransom money from the Israelites, and use it for the care of the Tabernacle. It will bring the Israelites to the Lord’s attention, and it will purify your lives.”

Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce.

Whatever you give is acceptable if you give it eagerly. And give according to what you have, not what you don’t have.

And this memorial pillar I have set up will become a place for worshiping God, and I will present to God a tenth of everything he gives me.”
