AbaFarisi bahamba baceba ukuthi bangambamba kanjani ekukhulumeni. Bathumela kuye abafundi babo kanye nabakaHerode, bathi: “Nkosi, siyazi ukuthi uyindoda eneqiniso, nokuthi ufundisa indlela kaNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso. Futhi awukhathazeki ngombono wanoma ngubani, ngoba awunaki isimo somuntu. Ake usitshele-ke ukuthi uthini umbono wakho: kuvunyelwe yini ukukhokha intela yokubalwa kwabantu kuKesari noma qha? Ebazi ububi babo, uJesu wathi: "Bazenzisi, ningilingelani?" Mathewu 22: 15-18
AbaFarisi "babengabazenzisi" abagcwele "ububi". Futhi babengamagwala njengoba babengeke ngisho benze ngokwecebo labo elibi. Esikhundleni salokho, bathumela abanye babafundi babo ukuba bazame ukubamba uJesu.Ngokubuka kokuhlakanipha kwezwe, bakha isicupho esihle kakhulu. Kungenzeka-ke ukuthi abaFarisi bahlala phansi baxoxa kabanzi ngaleli tulo, bayalela lezi zithunywa ukuthi zithini ngqo.
Baqala ngokuhalalisela uJesu ngokumtshela ukuthi bayazi ukuthi "uyindoda eqotho". Bese beqhubeka bethi bayazi ukuthi uJesu "akanandaba nemibono yomuntu." Lezi zimfanelo zikaJesu ezinembile ezimbili kuthiwa ngoba abaFarisi bakholelwa ukuthi bangazisebenzisa njengesisekelo sogibe lwabo. Uma uJesu eqotho futhi engenandaba nemibono yabanye, ngakho-ke balindele ukuthi asho ukuthi asikho isidingo sokukhokha intela yethempeli. Umphumela wenkulumo enjalo kaJesu kungaba ukuthi uzoboshwa ngamaRoma.
Iqiniso elidabukisayo ukuthi abaFarisi bachitha amandla amakhulu kakhulu behlela futhi behlela lolu gibe olubi. Yeka ukuchitha isikhathi! Futhi iqiniso elikhazimulayo ukuthi uJesu usebenzisa amandla angabi khona ukuqeda icebo labo futhi abembulele abazenzisi ababi ukuthi bangabo. Uthi: "Buyiselani kuKesari okungokukaKesari nakuNkulunkulu okukaNkulunkulu" (Mathewu 22:21).
Empilweni yethu, kunezikhathi lapho singase sihlangane ubuso nobuso nezinhloso zomunye ezimbi kanye nozungu. Yize lokhu kungajwayelekile kwabanye, kuyenzeka. Imvamisa, umphumela wozungu olunjalo ukuthi sikhathazeke kakhulu futhi silahlekelwe ukuthula. Kepha uJesu wakhuthazelela ububi obunjalo ukusikhombisa ukuthi singaphatha kanjani ukuhlaselwa nezicupho esingase sihlangane nazo empilweni. Impendulo ukuhlala uzinze eQinisweni futhi uphendule ngokuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu.Ukuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu kungena futhi kuvimbele zonke izenzo zomuntu zobubi nenkohliso.
