The disciples seem to understand what lies ahead for Jesus. This second prediction of Jesus’ passion is followed by the tax collectors questioning Peter about Jesus paying the temple tax. In the end, Jesus pays the tax so as not to offend or cause scandal, but he does so in a most unusual way.

We look to you, Lord, as one in the world but not of the world. It is a difficult balance, so we lean on you to guide us in doing what is right. St. Maximilian, pray for us.
