The Parable of the Tenants (Matthew

What is the contrast between the way Jesus spoke to the self-righteous and the way He spoke to the repentant?
(1) The Parable
How do we see the diligence and hard work of this man in preparing his vineyard?
What are the ways in which the tenants respond to the owner's servants?
(2) The Question
What do the Jewish leaders say should be done to these wicked tenants?
(3) The Explanation
This parable is a picture of God's relationship with His covenant people.
What care did God show for His people throughout the Old Testament?
How did Israel treat the prophets God sent to them?
Is verse 43 teaching us that God is now turning to the church as Plan B? Why or why not?
How does this parable (and the ultimate response of the Jewish leaders) show us the love of Jesus for us?
