“Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and went away on a journey. When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his fruit.
“The tenants seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned a third. Then he sent other servants to them, more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way. Last of all, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
“But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him and take his inheritance.’ So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
“Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?”
“He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and he will rent the vineyard to other tenants, who will give him his share of the crop at harvest time.”
This parable is about Evil man vs. Children of God.
God is the landowner who made all things in this world and God made man and woman to watch over the land. Many years later he rented it out to Abraham saying “Come, to the land which I will show you.” So Abraham went and settles to the promise land. Many years later when the harvest time is approaching He sent his Prophets to collect his people. The wicked tenants (kings and Jewish people) seized the prophets; they beat one, killed another, and stone a third. Then God sent other prophets more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way. Then God sent his son Yashua thinking that they will respect him. But when the tenants knew that He is the son of God they said to themselves “Come! Let’s kill him and take his inheritance.” So they took him and killed him.
What will God do to those tenants?
It is true that God will cut off Israel and give it to the Gentiles and the Gentiles will give God’s people back.
