9. Matthew 22:15-22 Show me the money
It appears that the religious establishment uses this reported interaction to set a trap for Jesus. This is reported a few chapters later.

Verse routeεπιδειξατε μοι το νομισμα του κηνσου οι δε προσηνεγκαν αυτω δηναριον [gnt]

The Greek word for "coin" used here is the source of the English word "numismatics".
The Greek word comes from a word meaning "pasture" and then "custom" as a way to allocate or distribute things. The negation of this word is often translated as "iniquity".

29. Luke 23:1-2 Crowd
At the trial and crucifixion, the misconceptions about what Jesus said are brought up again. We find this in Luke 23.
