Parable of the Vineyard Owner

12AND [Jesus] started to speak to them in parables [with comparisons and illustrations]. A man planted a vineyard and put a hedge around it and dug a pit for the winepress and built a tower and let it out [for rent] to vinedressers and went into another country.G2532G756G3004G846G1722G3850G444G5452G290G2532G4060G5418G2532G3736G5276G2532G3618G4444G2532G1554G846G1554G1092G2532G5892When the season came, he sent a bond servant to the tenants to collect from them some of the fruit of the vineyard.G2532G2540G649G4314G1092G1401G2443G2983G3844G1092G575G2590G2903But they took him and beat him and sent him away without anything.G1161G2983G1194G846G2532G649G27564Again he sent to them another bond servant, and they {stoned him and} wounded him in the head and treated him shamefully [sending him away with insults].G2532G3825G649G4314G846G243G1401G2548G3036G2775G2532G649G8215And he sent another, and that one they killed; then many others--some they beat, and some they put to death.G2532G3825G649G243G2548G615G2532G4183G243G3303G1194G1161G6156He had still one left [to send], a beloved son; last of all he sent him to them, saying, They will respect my son.G2192G2089G3767G1520G5207G846G27G649G846G2532G2078G4314G846G3004G3754G1788G3450G52077But those tenants said to one another, Here is the heir; come on, let us put him to death, and [then] the inheritance will be ours.G1161G1565G1092G2036G4314G1438G3754G3778G2076G2818G1205G615G846G2532G2817G2071G22578And they took him and killed him, and threw [his body] outside the vineyard.G2532G2983G846G615G2532G1544G1854G2909Now what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants, and give the vineyard to others.G5101G4160G3767G2962G290G4160G2064G2532G622G1092G2532G1325G290G24310Have you not even read this [passage of] Scripture: The very Stone which [after putting It to the test] the builders rejected has become the Head of the corner [Cornerstone];G314G3761G314G5026G1124G3037G3739G3618G593G3778G1096G1519G2776G113711This is from the Lord {and} is His doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?G3778G1096G2962G1096G3844G2532G2076G2298G1722G2257G378812And they were trying to get hold of Him, but they were afraid of the people, for they knew that He spoke this parable with reference to {and} against them. So they left Him and departed.G2532G2212G2902G846G2532G5399G3793G1063G1097G3754G2036G3850G4314G846G2532G863G846G565

Jesus Answers the Pharisees, Sadducees and Scribes

13But they sent some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to Him for the purpose of entrapping Him in His speech.G2532G649G4314G846G5100G5330G2532G2265G2443G64G846G305614And they came up and said to Him, Teacher, we know that You are sincere {and} what You profess to be, that You cannot lie, {and} that You have no personal bias for anyone; for You are not influenced by partiality {and} have no regard for anyone's external condition {or} position, but in [and on the basis of] truth You teach the way of God. Is it lawful (permissible and right) to give tribute (poll taxes) to Caesar or not?G1161G2064G3004G846G1320G1492G3754G1488G227G2532G4671G3756G3199G4012G3762G1063G991G3756G1519G4383G444G235G1321G3598G2316G1909G225G1832G1325G2778G2541G2228G375615Should we pay [them] or should we not pay [them]? But knowing their hypocrisy, He asked them, Why do you put Me to the test? Bring Me a coin (a denarius), so I may see it.G1325G2228G3361G1325G1161G1492G846G5272G2036G846G5101G3985G3165G5342G3427G1220G2443G149216And they brought [Him one]. Then He asked them, Whose image (picture) is this? And whose superscription (title)? They said to Him, Caesar's.G1161G5342G2532G3004G846G5101G3778G1504G2532G1923G1161G2036G846G254117Jesus said to them, Pay to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's. And they stood marveling {and} greatly amazed at Him.G2532G2424G611G2036G846G591G2541G3588G2541G2532G2316G3588G2316G2532G2296G1909G84618And [some] Sadducees came to Him, [of that party] who say there is no resurrection, and they asked Him a question, saying,G2532G2064G4314G846G4523G3748G3004G1511G3361G386G2532G1905G846G300419Teacher, Moses gave us [a law] that if a man's brother died, leaving a wife but no child, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.G1320G3475G1125G2254G3754G1437G5100G80G599G2532G2641G1135G2532G863G3361G5043G2443G846G80G2983G846G1135G2532G1817G4690G846G8020Now there were seven brothers; the first one took a wife and died, leaving no children.G2258G2033G80G2532G4413G2983G1135G2532G599G863G3756G469021And the second [brother] married her, and died, leaving no children; and the third did the same;G2532G1208G2983G846G2532G599G2532G3761G863G846G4690G2532G5154G561522And all seven, leaving no children. Last of all, the woman died also.G2532G2033G2983G846G2532G863G3756G4690G2078G3956G1135G599G253223Now in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For the seven were married to her.G1722G386G3767G3752G450G5101G1135G2071G846G1063G2033G2192G846G113524Jesus said to them, Is not this where you wander out of the way {and} go wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God?G2532G2424G611G2036G846G4105G3756G1223G5124G4105G1492G3361G1124G3366G1411G231625For when they arise from among the dead, [men] do not marry nor are [women] given in marriage, but are like the angels in heaven.G1063G3752G450G1537G3498G3777G1060G3777G1061G235G1526G5613G32G3588G1722G377226But concerning the dead being raised--have you not read in the book of Moses, [in the passage] about the [burning] bush, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?G1161G4012G3498G3754G1453G314G3756G314G1722G976G3475G5613G1909G942G2316G2036G846G3004G1473G2316G11G2532G2316G2464G2532G2316G238427He is not the God of [the] dead, but of [the] living! You are very wrong.G2076G3756G2316G3498G235G2316G2198G5210G3767G4105G4183G410528Then one of the scribes came up and listened to them disputing with one another, and, noticing that Jesus answered them fitly {and} admirably, he asked Him, Which commandment is first {and} most important of all [in its nature]?G2532G1520G1122G4334G191G846G4802G1492G3754G611G846G2573G1905G846G4169G2076G4413G1785G395629Jesus answered, The first {and} principal {one of all commands} is: Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord;G1161G2424G611G846G3754G4413G3956G1785G191G2474G2962G2257G2316G2076G1520G296230And you shall love the Lord your God out of {and} with your whole heart and out of {and} with all your soul (your life) and out of {and} with all your mind (with your faculty of thought and your moral understanding) and out of {and} with all your strength. {This is the first and principal commandment.}G2532G25G2962G4675G2316G1537G3650G4675G2588G2532G1537G3650G4675G5590G2532G1537G3650G4675G1271G2532G1537G3650G4675G2479G3778G4413G178531The second {is like it and} is this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.G2532G1208G3664G3778G846G25G4675G4139G5613G4572G2076G3756G243G1785G3187G513032And the scribe said to Him, Excellently {and} fitly {and} admirably answered, Teacher! You have said truly that He is One, and there is no other but Him;G2532G1122G2036G846G2573G1320G2036G1909G225G3754G2076G1520G2316G2532G2076G3756G243G4133G84633And to love Him out of {and} with all the heart and with all the understanding [with the faculty of quick apprehension and intelligence and keenness of discernment] and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is much more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. [I Sam. 15:22; Hos. 6:6; Mic. 6:6-8; Heb. 10:8.]G2532G25G846G1537G3650G2588G2532G1537G3650G4907G2532G1537G3650G5590G2532G1537G3650G2479G2532G25G4139G5613G1438G2076G4119G3956G3646G2532G237834And when Jesus saw that he answered intelligently (discreetly and having his wits about him), He said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And after that no one ventured {or} dared to ask Him any further question.G2532G2424G1492G3754G846G611G3562G2036G846G1488G3756G3112G575G932G2316G2532G3762G3765G5111G1905G84635And as Jesus taught in [a porch or court of] the temple, He said, How can the scribes say that the Christ is David's Son?G2532G2424G611G3004G1321G1722G2411G4459G3004G1122G3754G5547G2076G5207G113836David himself, [inspired] in the Holy Spirit, declared, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies [a footstool] under Your feet.G1063G1138G846G2036G1722G40G4151G2962G2036G3450G2962G2521G1537G3450G1188G2193G302G5087G4675G2190G4675G5286G422837David himself calls Him Lord; so how can it be that He is his Son? Now the great mass of the people heard [Jesus] gladly [listening to Him with delight].G1138G3767G846G3004G846G2962G2532G4159G2076G846G5207G2532G4183G3793G191G846G223438And in [the course of] His teaching, He said, Beware of the scribes, who like to go around in long robes and [to get] greetings in the marketplaces [public forums],G2532G3004G846G1722G846G1322G991G575G1122G3588G2309G4043G1722G4749G2532G783G1722G5839And [have] the front seats in the synagogues and the chief couches (places of honor) at feasts,G2532G4410G1722G4864G2532G4411G1722G117340Who devour widows' houses and to cover it up make long prayers. They will receive the heavier [sentence of] condemnation.G2719G5503G3614G2532G4392G4336G3117G4336G3778G2983G4055G2917

The Widow’s Mite

41And He sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the crowd was casting money into the treasury. Many rich [people] were throwing in large sums.G2532G2424G2523G2713G1049G2334G4459G3793G906G5475G1519G1049G2532G4183G4145G906G418342And a widow who was poverty-stricken came and put in two copper mites [the smallest of coins], which together make half of a cent.G2532G2064G3391G4434G5503G906G1417G3016G3603G283543And He called His disciples [to Him] and said to them, Truly {and} surely I tell you, this widow, [she who is] poverty-stricken, has put in more than all those contributing to the treasury.G2532G4341G846G3101G3004G846G281G3004G5213G3754G3778G4434G5503G906G4119G906G3956G906G1519G104944For they all threw in out of their abundance; but she, out of her deep poverty, has put in everything that she had--[even] all she had on which to live.G1063G3956G906G1537G846G4052G1161G3778G846G1537G846G5304G906G3956G3745G2192G3650G846G979
