SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:39
Y tomándole, le echaron fuera de la viña, y le mataron.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 21:39
Verse 39. Cast him out of the vineyard] Utterly rejected the counsel of God against themselves; and would neither acknowledge the authority of Christ, nor submit to his teaching. What a strange and unaccountable case is this!-a sinner, to enjoy a little longer his false peace, and the gratification of his sinful appetites, rejects Jesus, and persecutes that Gospel which troubles his sinful repose.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 39. And they caught him , etc.] Seized and laid hold of him, in a rude and violent manner, as they had some of the servants before. This regards their apprehending of Christ in the garden, by a band of soldiers and officers, sent by the chief priests and Pharisees, who with swords and staves took him, bound him, and led him away: and cast him out of the vineyard ; which is not to be understood of their casting him out of the synagogue, which is never said of them; nor does it so much relate to the leading of him without the gates of Jerusalem, where they crucified him, though this is a sense not to be despised and rejected; but rather, to the delivery of him to those, that were without the vineyard of the Jewish church and nation, to the Gentiles; to be mocked, scourged, and put to death by them: and slew him : for though the sentence of death was pronounced on him by Pilate, an Heathen governor, and was executed by the Roman soldiers; yet it was through the instigation and at the pressing importunity of these husbandmen, the Jewish rulers; and who were afterwards frequently charged by the apostles with the murder of him.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 33-46 - This parable plainly sets forth the sin and ruin of the Jewish nation and what is spoken to convict them, is spoken to caution all that enjo the privileges of the outward church. As men treat God's people, the would treat Christ himself, if he were with them. How can we, i faithful to his cause, expect a favourable reception from a wicke world, or from ungodly professors of Christianity! And let us as ourselves, whether we who have the vineyard and all its advantages render fruits in due season, as a people, as a family, or as separat persons. Our Saviour, in his question, declares that the Lord of the vineyard will come, and when he comes he will surely destroy the wicked. The chief priests and the elders were the builders, and the would not admit his doctrine or laws; they threw him aside as despised stone. But he who was rejected by the Jews, was embraced by the Gentiles. Christ knows who will bring forth gospel fruits in the use of gospel means. The unbelief of sinners will be their ruin. But God has many ways of restraining the remainders of wrath, as he has of making that which breaks out redound to his praise. May Christ becom more and more precious to our souls, as the firm Foundation an Cornerstone of his church. May we be willing to follow him, thoug despised and hated for his sake __________________________________________________________________
