Jesus Christ » History of » Enunciates » The parable of the wicked husbandmen (in jerusalem)
And he said to them, in parables, A man planted a vineyard and made a hedge about it, and dug a wine-vat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad. And he sent a servant to the husbandmen at the time to receive from the husbandmen of the fruits of the vineyard; and they took him, and beat him, and sent him away empty. read more.
And again he sent another servant to them, and they wounded him on the head, and treated him shamefully. And he sent another, and they killed him; and many others, and they beat some, and killed some. Having yet one beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, They will reverence my son. But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours. And seizing him, they killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard. What will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and let the vineyard to others. Have you not read this Scripture, The stone which the builders rejected, has become the head of a corner; this is from the Lord, and it is wonderful in our eyes? And they sought to take him, and feared the multitude, for they knew that he spoke this parable against them. And they left him, and went away.

Hear another parable: There was a man, a householder, who planted a vineyard, and made a hedge around it, and dug a wine vat in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad. And when the time of the fruits approached he sent his servants to the husbandmen to receive his fruits. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. read more.
Again he sent other servants more than the first; and they treated them in the same manner. And afterwards he sent them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him and take his inheritance. And they took him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. When, therefore, the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those husbandmen? They said to him, He will inflict on those men a miserable death, and let out his vineyard to other husbandmen, who will render him the fruits in their seasons. Jesus said to them, Have you never read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same has become the head of a corner? this is from the Lord, and is wonderful in our eyes? I tell you, therefore, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation yielding its fruits. (Added verse not retained in Sawyer) And the chief priests and Pharisees hearing his parables, knew that he spoke of them; and they sought to take him, but feared the people, because they regarded him as a prophet.

And he spoke to the people this parable; A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time. And at the time he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard; and the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty. And again he sent another servant; and they beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty. read more.
And again he sent a third; and they wounded him, and cast him out. And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; doubtless, when they see him they will respect him. But seeing him, the husbandmen reasoned with themselves, saying, This is the heir; let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours. And they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What, therefore, will the lord of the vineyard do to them? He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and let the vineyard to others. And hearing this, they said, By no means. And he looked at them and said, What, then, is this which is written? The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of a corner; every one that falls on that stone shall be bruised; but on whomsoever it shall fall it shall crush him to atoms. And the scribes and chief priests sought to lay hands on him at that time; and they feared the people; for they knew that he spoke this parable to them.

Jesus Christ » History of » Enunciates » The parable of the marriage banquet (in jerusalem)
And he said to him, A certain man made a great supper, and invited many. And he sent his servant at the time of the supper to say to the invited, Come, for all things are now ready. And they all with one consent excused themselves. The first said to him, I have bought a field and I must go to see it; I pray you have me excused. read more.
And another said, I have bought five yokes of oxen and I go to try them; I pray you have me excused. And another said, I have married a wife, and on this account I cannot come. And the servant came and reported to his lord these things. Then the master of the house; being angry, said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and maimed, and blind, and lame. And the servant said, Lord, it is done as you commanded, and yet there is room. And the Lord said to the servant, Go out into the ways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled; for I tell you that none of those men that were invited shall taste of my supper.

AND Jesus answered and spoke to them again in parables saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a man, a king, who made a wedding for his son. And he sent his servants to call the invited to the wedding, and they would not come. read more.
Again he sent other servants, saying, Tell the invited, Behold, I have prepared my supper, my oxen and fatted creatures are killed, and all things are ready; come to the wedding. But they neglected it, and went away, one to his farm, and another to his merchandise; and the rest took his servants and treated them injuriously, and killed them. And the king was angry, and sent his armies and destroyed those murderers, and burnt up their city. Then he said to his servants, The wedding indeed is ready, but the invited were not worthy. Go, therefore, to the crossings of the ways, and invite all you find to the wedding. And those servants went out into the highways, and collected all whom they found, both bad and good, and the wedding was furnished with guests. And the king coming in to see the guests observed there a man who had not on a wedding garment, and said to him, Friend, how came you in here not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then the king said to the servants, Bind his feet and hands, and cast him into the darkness outside. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few chosen.

But what do you think? A man had two sons; and he went to the first, and said, Son, go and work to-day in the vineyard. But he answered and said, I will not; but afterwards he repented, and went. And he came to the other, and said the same. And he answered and said, I will go sir, but went not. read more.
Which of the two did the will of the father? They said to him, The first. Jesus said to them, I tell you truly, that the publicans and harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
