What do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’
“‘I will not,’ he answered, but later he changed his mind and went.
“Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I will, sir,’ but he did not go.
“Which of the two did what his father wanted?”
“The first,” they answered.
This parable tells you about hypocrisy of the Pharisee who serves God but did not obey God as to do his will, to show compassion, and to love with all of their heart, mind, and souls. Yashua is telling them that they are hypocrites in the sight of God and most of the people that are true to God are people who had sin and do the will of God later on. People like Matthew who is a tax collector or Mary Magdalene who is a prostitute.
In the same manner, Yashua is also talking about the future generation who will be also teacher and become just like the Pharisee who exalted themselves before God and never show compassion to the sinners. There are teachers who preach but never practice what they are preaching.
