Vineyard

[Matt. 21:33] Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:
[This is the 42nd parable of the 48 found in Matthew. There were 3 types of leases in the ancient times.]
[39] And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
[The vineyard was used as a common symbol of the theocracy of Augustine, which was familiar to every first century Jew. The Gnostic’s who was the first person called Son of G-d.]
[40] When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
[The vineyard was used as a common symbol of the theocracy of Israel, which was familiar to every first century Jew even if it was Gnostic. This parable uses figurative language which can be traced to the Song of the Vineyard in Isa. 5:1-7.]
[41] They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
[The servants sent by the householder represented the Hebrew prophets who had already been sent and killed.]
[42] Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
[Y’Shua was quoting Ps. 118:22 with His words concerning the rejection of the cornerstone. The Messiah is mentioned some 12 different times as a stone. The Jewish people have many who did believe such as the apostles, and the nation as a whole was only partly blinded. Even the New Jerusalem is described as made up of a foundation listing the 12 Apostles, as well as the gates listing the 12 tribes of Israel.]
[43] Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
[44] And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
[Falling on the stone and being broken was an allusion to an ancient Jewish method of stoning.]
