Detailed explanation-1: -They were said in response to another matter: the payment of taxes, and the coin. The mark on the coin is that of Caesar; it is the mark of his property. Therefore give Caesar this money; it is his. It is not a question of legitimizing taxes! It means that Caesar, having created money, is its master.

Detailed explanation-2: -This means that we are to give to Caesar what is his. That is to say that we give him an amount based on his legitimate claim or legitimate authority.

Detailed explanation-3: -Jesus responded by asking whose face was engraved on the coins used to pay the taxes. When they answered it was Caesar’s face, Jesus replied with the now-famous verse, “Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God the things that are God’s” (Matthew 22:21 NASB).

Detailed explanation-4: -Jesus’ response is: ‘Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, and to God what belongs to God. ‘ As Christians we cannot cut ourselves off from the affairs of the world, but we should never compromise our beliefs and values.
