Jesus Drops the Gloves

In Mark 12:1-17 Jesus continues to hit the beehive with a stick, openly confronting the religious leaders through a parable that calls out their rejection of God’s representatives (the law and the prophets and now Jesus) to protect their own self interests.  The religious leaders try to trap Jesus into either taking side with the Romans or committing treason, but He calls out their hypocrisy and reiterates his teaching that we should keep our focus on the kingdom of God not earthy kingdoms (nor our own personal kingdoms).
