Luke 20:15 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:15

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 Acts 2:36 ) ( 3:15 ) ( 5:30 ) ( 10:39 )

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.

Luke 20:15 In-Context

13 Then the owner of the vineyard said, "What shall I do? I will send my own dear son; surely they will respect him!'
14 But when the tenants saw him, they said to one another, "This is the owner's son. Let's kill him, and his property will be ours!'
15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. "What, then, will the owner of the vineyard do to the tenants?" Jesus asked.
16 "He will come and kill those men, and turn the vineyard over to other tenants." When the people heard this, they said, "Surely not!"
17 Jesus looked at them and asked, "What, then, does this scripture mean? "The stone which the builders rejected as worthless turned out to be the most important of all.'
