# What do you think, Simon? The kings on earth, from whom do they receive tax or tribute? From their subjects or from foreigners?

Jesus asks these questions to teach Simon, not to gain information for himself. AT: "Listen, Simon. We know that when kings collect taxes, they collect it from foreigners rather than their own citizens" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
# kings on earth
This refers to leaders in general.
