Gill's Notes on the Bible
But those husbandmen said among themselves,.... This, in the Persic version, is introduced thus, "when the vine dressers saw the son of the lord of the vineyard": agreeably to Matthew 21:38.

The inheritance shall be ours. — By slaying him we shall maintain our authority, and keep possession of our revenues.
