We must take the passage as a whole in order to avoid two extremes: political systems which would co-opt the Church through favor and those which would exclude it by force.

2 Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time Give to Caesar what is Caesar s, but give to God what is God s. This clear cut retort of Jesus does not claim to say all that must be said about Christian participation in civic life. We must take the passage as a whole in order to avoid two extremes: political systems which would co-opt the Church through favor and those which would exclude it by force. The Church for its part must avoid the temptation to give God what is Caesar s, to use religion s power to dominate society. Is ii lawful to pay tax to the Emperor or not? The adversaries of Jesus and the partisans of the Roman occupation here join forces to trap this Galilean who challenges the established order. In the volatile contest of a proud Jordan nationalism which bitterly resents taxation as an ignominious sign of subjection to Rome, this is an explosive question. If Jesus refuses the tribute to Caesar, he places himself on the side of the violent revolutionaries. If he authorizes it, His religious integrity is compromised. These questioners who feign embarrassment are hypocrites. Their pockets are full of Caesar s coins. In fact, they acknowledge the supreme power of the Lord of Lords, the Roman Emperor. Jesus eludes the trap. Give to Caesar what is Caesar s but give to God what is God s! Jesus appeals to the Absolute who topples the idols of power. Jesus Christ is Lord (Phil 2: 11) this cry of primitive faith will forever deny Caesar s claim to absolute divine power. It stands in judgment against the hypocrites who use political or religious ideologies to enslave humanity.
