Contextual Overview
1Then Jesus gathered everyone who wanted to learn around him. He taught them with stories they could understand and relate to, "A man started a ranch and strung all the wire and set every post. He even built a big nice entrance with a gate. After that, he leased the ranch on shares to some cowboys who wanted to get started in the business. The rancher moved away to another part of the country, but at the time of shipping calves,
2he sent one of his cowboys back to get the share of his calves for the lease.
3But the cowboys on the ranch grabbed the cowboy and beat the crap out of him and sent him back without a single calf.
4"The rancher sent another hand over there to get his share of the calves and they beat that fellow also and sent him back empty-handed.
5The next cowboy the rancher sent was even killed. Still, the rancher sent hand after hand to get what was owed and right. They beat or killed every single one.
6"Finally, the rancher was all out of hands and the only one left to send was his only son—the son he loved more than anything else. The rancher finally sent him, thinking, 'Surely they will respect my son.'
7 "But the evil cowboys saw the son coming and said to one another, 'Look, the rancher sends his own son. If we kill him, then the rancher will have no one to leave his ranch to and we will have the boy's inheritance.'
8So they ambushed the rancher's grown son, killed him, and then left his body right outside the front gate."
9Jesus continued the story, "So what do y'all think the rancher will do? He will come back himself and kill those no-account rustlers and give the ranch to other cowboys who will be thankful for the opportunity to ride for him.
10Have you not read God's words that say, 'The calf the cowboys culled has now become the sire bull.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes. That is, the exaltation of the Messiah, after he had been so ill treated, and at last put to death by the Jews. These words are a continuation of the passage cited out of Psalms 118:22.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
