Contextual Overview
15When one of those reclining with Him heard this, he said to Jesus, "Blessed is everyone who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God." 16But Jesus replied, "A certain man prepared a great banquet and invited many guests. 17When it was time for the banquet, he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, 'Come, for everything is now ready.' 18But one after another they all began to make excuses. The first one said, 'I have bought a field and I need to go see it. Please excuse me.' 19Another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen and I am going to try them out. Please excuse me.' 20Still another said, 'I have married a wife, so I cannot come.' 21The servant returned and reported all this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and said to his servant, 'Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame.' 22'Sir,' the servant replied, 'what you ordered has been done, and there is still room.' 23So the master told his servant, 'Go out to the highways and hedges and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full. 24For I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will taste my banquet.'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For I say unto you,.... Most solemnly affirm it, and even swear to it, nothing is more certain, or will be found more true:
that none of those men that were bidden: the impenitent and unbelieving Jews, the Scribes, and Pharisees, and the greater part of the nation; who first had the Gospel published to them, who are the many that were called, though few were chosen, and therefore came not; nor did, nor
shall taste of my supper: nor had they so much as a superficial knowledge of the Gospel, of the truths, blessings, promises, and ordinances of it; being given up to judicial blindness and hardness of heart; and from whom, in a little while, the Gospel was wholly taken; and is not yet afforded to them as a body; nor will till the latter day, when the veil shall be taken away, and they shall turn to the Lord, and all Israel shall be saved; but as for the first disbelievers and rejecters of Christ among the Jews, they died in their sins, and perished eternally.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For I say unto you - These may be considered as the words of Jesus, making an application of the parable to the Pharisees before him.
None of those men - This cannot be understood as meaning that no âJewsâ would be saved, but that none of those who had âtreated him, in that mannerâ - none who had so decidedly rejected the offer of the gospel - would be saved. We may here see how dangerous it is âonceâ to reject the gospel; how dangerous to grieve away the Holy Spirit. How often God forsakes forever the sinner who has been once awakened, and who grieves the Holy Spirit. The invitation is full and free; but when it is rejected, and people turn willfully away from it, God leaves them to their chosen way, and they are drowned in destruction and perdition. How important, then, is it to embrace the gospel âat once;â to accept the gracious invitation, and enter without delay the path that conducts to heaven!
