THE WICKED TENANTS

Este duminica chiriasilor (Chiriarh, preot, credinciosi). Toti sintem chiriasi/ lucratori agricoli sezonieri in via/ Biserica proprietarului Hristos si pe aceasta planeta. The main elements in this parable (Matthew 21,33) are:

(1) the lend-owner, GOD,

(2) the vineyard - Israel,

(3) the tenants - the Jewish religious leaders,

(4) the landowner's servants - the prophets and priests who remained faithful to God and preached to Israel,

(5) the son- Jesus (21:38), and

(6) the other tenants - Gentiles.  

Jesus was exposing the religious leaders' murderous plot.

In trying to reach us with His love, God finally sent his own Son. Jesus' perfect life, his words of truth, and his sacrifice of love are meant to cause us to listen to Him and to follow  Him as Lord. If we ignore God's gracious gift of his Son, we reject God himself.(Zondervan)
