A “selfish” miracle? “When Jesus and his disciples came to Capernaum, the collectors of the Temple tax came to Peter and asked, ‘Does your teacher pay the Temple tax?’ ‘Of course,’ Peter answered. When Peter went into the house, Jesus spoke up first, ‘Simon, what is your opinion? Who pays duties or taxes to the kings of this world? The citizens of the country or the foreigners?’ ‘The foreigners,’ answered Peter.
From that time on Jesus began to say plainly to his disciples, I must go to Jerusalem and suffer much from the elders, the chief priests, and the teachers of the Law. I will be put to death, but three days later I will be raised to life. (Matthew 16:21) Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any of you want to come with me, you must forget yourself, carry your cross, and follow me. (Matthew 16:24) In the context of God’s kingdom, Jesus brings up his own death.
