Study Bible

Book ◦ Chapter

‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard.
This phrase reflects the owner's deliberation and patience. In the parable, the vineyard owner represents God, and the vineyard symbolizes Israel (Isaiah 5:1-7). The question highlights God's long-suffering nature and His desire to reach His people despite their repeated rejections. The vineyard owner's contemplation mirrors God's willingness to provide multiple opportunities for repentance and reconciliation.

‘I will send my beloved son.
The decision to send the beloved son signifies the ultimate act of love and sacrifice. The term "beloved son" is significant, as it echoes God's declaration of Jesus at His baptism and transfiguration (Matthew 3:17, 17:5). This phrase underscores Jesus' unique relationship with the Father and His role as the heir. It also foreshadows the sending of Jesus Christ to the world, fulfilling prophecies such asIsaiah 9:6 andPsalm 2:7, where the Messiah is depicted as God's Son.

Perhaps they will respect him.’
This phrase indicates hope and expectation. The vineyard owner's hope that the tenants will respect his son reflects God's desire for humanity to honor and accept Jesus. It also highlights the tragic reality of human rejection of divine overtures. The expectation of respect ties into the broader biblical theme of honoring God's messengers, as seen in the rejection of prophets throughout Israel's history (Jeremiah 7:25-26). The phrase also points to the eventual rejection and crucifixion of Jesus, fulfilling prophecies likeIsaiah 53:3, where the Messiah is described as despised and rejected by men.

The parable foreshadows the rejection of Jesus by the religious leaders. It serves as a warning against hard-heartedness and the refusal to accept God's messengers.

Respect for God's Authority
The expectation that the tenants would respect the son highlights the importance of recognizing and honoring God's authority in our lives.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(13)It may be.--The doubt implied in the qualification is a feature peculiar to St. Luke's report. The better MSS. omit the clause "when they see him."

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 13. -Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do! I will send my beloved son. The guilt of the husbandmen who acted as vine-dressers here reached its highest measure. The words represented here by Jesus as spoken by God, possess the deepest doctrinal value. They, under the thin veil of the parable-story, answer the question of the Sanhedrim (ver. 2), "By what authority doest thou these things?" The deliberative words, "What shall I do?" recall the Divine dialogue alluded to in Gem. 1:26. St. Luke here represents the Father as calling the Son, "myBeloved." St. Mark adds that he wasan only Son. Such sayings as this, and the remarkable prayer ofMatthew 11:25-27, are a clear indication of the Christology of the synoptists. Their estimate of the Person of the blessed Son in no wise differed from that given us by St. John at much greater length and with fuller details.
