I'm with Ricky on the meaning of what He said . He also admonished the tax collectors to not take more than what was due but He didn't set the amount .
Wisdom literature is like that . It's like a perfect diamond in that it's right no matter which angle you view it from .
The IRS took Him at His word when He said the deal about requiring more from those who had been given more .
Buncha stawlwart christians - them IRS boys !
