Narrate the parable of the wicked tenants Lk 19:9 -18.
- When Jesus was teaching and preaching in Temple during his Jerusalem ministry, the Jewish religious leaders questioned his authority.
- Jesus told them the parable of the wicked tenants to help interpret his role and that of his opponents.
- Jesus told them the parable of the man who planted vineyards and let it out to tenants & went into another country for along time. - When the time of harvest came, he sent his servants to the tenants, that they may give him some of the fruits of the vineyard. The tenants instead beat him up and sent him empty-handed.
- He sent another servant whom they beat & treated shamefully and sent him empty handed.
- He sent yet a third one whom they wounded and caste out.
- The owner of the vineyard then sent his own son but he was beaten up and killed.
- Jesus posed a question "what then will the owner do to the vineyard?. He will come destroy those tenants and give the vineyard to others.
- Jesus concluded the parable that "the very stone the builders rejected has become the corner stone ".
OR
Jesus told the people the parable of a man who planted a vineyard and rented it out to tenants and then
left home for a long time.
When harvest time comes,he sent his servant to get a share of his harvest.
The tenants beat up the servant and sent him back without anything.
So he sent second and third servant,but they were beaten and sent sent away empty handed.
The owner decided to send his own dear son,expecting the tenants to respect him.
When the tenants saw the son they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
Jesus asked what then shall the owner of the vineyard do to the tenants
He will come and kill these men and give the vineyard to other tenants.
They said surely not;Jesus looked at them and said "What then the scripture mean"?The stone that the builders rejected became the corner stone
