Tribute       a tax imposed by a king on his subjects (2 Sam. 20:24; 1 Kings       4:6; Rom. 13:6). In Matt. 17:24-27 the word denotes the temple       rate (the "didrachma," the "half-shekel," as rendered by the       R.V.) which was required to be paid for the support of the       temple by every Jew above twenty years of age (Ex. 30:12; 2       Kings 12:4; 2 Chr. 24:6, 9). It was not a civil but a religious       tax.                In Matt. 22:17, Mark 12:14, Luke 20:22, the word may be       interpreted as denoting the capitation tax which the Romans       imposed on the Jewish people. It may, however, be legitimately       regarded as denoting any tax whatever imposed by a foreign power       on the people of Israel. The "tribute money" shown to our Lord       (Matt. 22:19) was the denarius, bearing Caesar's superscription.       It was the tax paid by every Jew to the Romans. (See {PENNY}.)
