Can you tell me where money originated from. I know they introduced taxes during bible times. But I have no idea whose idea it was to invent money and then use it. I would be interested to know!

Critically, money simply originated from the knowledge that God the Father gave to human beings in the olden days. That idea - where money originated should make you give glory to God for His omniscient nature. He has great wisdom by His side. Wisdom tells Him what to do and when to do it. Infact, to summarize it all, He created money. The elements that money comprises were created by Him.

Unfortunately, this is a subject that I know little about, but I did happen upon a website, just the other day, which might be of some interest to you, Kylalynn. There's a book entitled, "History of Money from Ancient Times to Present Day" by Glyn Davies. It even has a website, which you can see here: http://www.ex.ac.uk/~RDavies/arian/llyfr.html I'm not affiliated with it anyway, just trying to help out. :)
