In Context

1 And he began to speak to them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and dig a place for the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to farmers, and went into a far country.

2 And at the season he sent to the farmers a servant, that he might receive from the farmers of the fruit of the vineyard.

3 And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.

4 And again he sent to them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.

5 And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.
