Luke 20:16. He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others.
And he did so; he scattered abroad the Jews, and gave the kingdom, for a while at least, unto the Gentiles, and they hear the gospel which the Jesus refused.
Luke 20:16. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.
That is exactly what you and I would say, for we, too, have ill-treated the blessed Lord of the vineyard and his beloved Son. Lest we should have the heritage taken from us, let us yield up the fruit to him who has the best right to it all.
