Summary: This year’s election is the source of a lot of stress! The political climate of the first century was also a source of stress for the Jews who lived under the oppression of the Romans. But when the religious leaders come to Jesus with a political question about the Romans’ rule and their taxes, Jesus does not become stressed, He handles their political question adeptly and brilliantly. How Jesus answers the religious’ leaders question can teach us a lot about how we engage in politics today.
