LUKE 20:9 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time.”
He went on to tell the people this parable: a man planted a vineyard, rented it to some farmers and went away for a long time — the Wicked Tenants parable is addressed to the people (unlike the authority question which was addressed to the Sanhedrin). The vineyard imagery draws on Isaiah 5:1–7 — the vineyard of Israel entrusted to its caretakers.
