Why do you think the Saducees did not know the Scriptures or the power of God?

The Saducees had their own belief that was not making them recognise the powers of God. The limited belief in a way that they did not even understand the words of Moses since Jesus could easily answer them using the same books they read and drew their laws from. They did not have the wisdom to understand the books they read about God.

What was it about Jesus` answer that caused the Pharisees and Herodians to marvel?

Jesus answered them wisely that, `what belongs to Caesar is Caesar`s and what belongs to God is God`s just by using the same denarius they came with to test him. Jesus told them what they had in their minds that they were coming being sent by the Pharisees to test him.

Why was the king so angry when those invited did not come to the wedding banquet? What point was Jesus making with this parable?

The King was let down by His invited Guests while he made a lot of sacrifices to kill His oxen and fatlings and many feasting arrangements. Jesus is making a point here to show us the christians that the time of banquet is here and if we ask for excuses we shall be left out of the great feasting in heaven and if we are not ready to get dressed in the wedding gown we are likely to be refused entrance to the feasting area. The wedding dress here means the faithful sign of Christ which is engraved in every Christian by baptism.
