'Is It Lawful' in the Bible

Some Pharisees came to him in order to test him. They asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?"

So tell us what you think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

Then he asked them, "Is it lawful to do good or to do evil on Sabbath days, to save a life or to destroy it?" But they remained silent.

Some Pharisees came to test him. They asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"

They came and told him, "Teacher, we know that you are sincere. You don't favor any individual, because you pay no attention to external appearance. Rather, you teach the way of God truthfully. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or shouldn't we?"

Then Jesus asked them, "I ask you, is it lawful to do good or to do evil on the Sabbath, to save a life or to destroy it?"

So Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the Law, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?"

Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"
