Exodus 22:25-27 is an unrelated law, regarding giving back a garment that was a pledge for a loan to the poor (with no relation to legally prosecuting someone). And not heeding to Israel's judges could even bring the death penalty ( Deuteronomy 17:9-12 ).
The Tribute Money, by Titian (1516), depicts Jesus being shown the tribute penny. "Render unto Caesar" is the beginning of a phrase attributed to Jesus in the synoptic gospels, which reads in full, "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's" (Ἀπόδοτε οὖν τὰ Καίσαρος Καίσαρι καὶ τὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ τῷ Θεῷ).

While he is away, he expects his believers to "'Do business with this until I come back.'" .

Wink notes that public nudity was viewed as bringing shame on the viewer, and not just the naked, as seen in Noah's case (Genesis 9:20–23). [5] Wink interprets the succeeding verse from the Sermon on the Mount as a method for making the oppressor break the law.
The Antiochan Stater is one possibility for the identity of the coins making up the thirty pieces. A Tyrian shekel, another possibility for the type of coin involved. The word used in Matthew 26:15 (ἀργύρια, argyria) simply means "silver coins", [10] and scholars disagree on the type of coins that would have been used.
