Contextual Overview
9Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable: "A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to some tenants, and went away for a long time. 10At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed. 11So he sent another servant, but they beat him and humiliated him, sending him away empty-handed.12Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out. 13'What shall I do?' asked the owner of the vineyard. 'I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.' 14But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.' 15So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? 16He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others." And when the people heard this, they said, "May such a thing never happen!" 17But Jesus looked directly at them and said, "Then what is the meaning of that which is written: 'The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone'? 18Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And again he sent another servant,.... Or set of prophets in after times, and yet before the Babylonish captivity:
and they beat him also; as they had done the other; they continued in their malpractices, yea increased in them:
and entreated him shamefully; putting him to open shame, using him in a very ignominious and shameful manner, which it was a shame to relate, and which was shameful for them to do:
and sent him away empty; as they had done the other.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this parable explained in the notes at Matthew 21:33-45.
