Contextual Overview

9 And he began to say this parable to the people, A man planted a vineyard, and leased it to laborers, and went on a journey for a long time. 10 And at the season he sent his servant to the laborers to give him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the laborers beat him and sent him back empty. 11 And again he sent another of his servants; but they beat him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent him back empty. 12 And again he sent the third one; but they wounded him also, and threw him outside. 13 Then the owner of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will see him and feel ashamed. 14 But when the laborers saw him, they reasoned with themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours. 15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the owner of the vineyard do to them? 16 He will come and destroy those laborers, and give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, This will never happen. 17 But he looked at them and said, What is it that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same became the cornerstone? 18 Whoever falls on that stone will be broken; and on whomever it falls it will scatter him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So they cast him out of the vineyard,.... Rejected him as the Messiah, even denied that he was of the Jewish nation; said he was a Samaritan, and delivered him to the Gentiles that were without, and were aliens from the commonwealth of Israel; and at last had him without their city, and put him to death, as follows:

and killed him; the Prince of life, the Lord of glory, and heir of all things; see Acts 2:23

what therefore shall the Lord of the vineyard do unto them? the husbandmen, the chief priests, elders, Scribes, and Pharisees; at whose solicitations the life of his Son, and heir, was taken away; by which he must be greatly provoked and incensed.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See this parable explained in the notes at Matthew 21:33-45.
