Matt. xxi. 33–44.

Hear another parable. There was a certain householiler,

which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and

digged a winepress, and built a tower, and let it out to

husbandmen, and went into a fur country. And when the

time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to receive

the fruits. And the husbandmen took the servants, and

beat some, and killed some, and stoned some. Again he sent

other servants more than the first: and they did unto them

likewise. But last he sent unto them his son, saying, It

may be they will reverence my son. But when the husband-

men saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the

heir, come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

And they cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.

When the Lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what

will he do to those husbandmen? They say unto Him, He

will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out

his vineyard to other husbandmen, which shall render him

the fruits in their seasons. Jesus saith unto them, Did

ye never read in the Scriptures, “ The Stone Which the

builders rejected, the Same is become the Head of the

corner ; this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in

our eyes ?" Therefore I say unto you, The Kingdom of

God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation

bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall

fall on This Stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever It

shall fall, It will grind him to powder.

Matt. xxii. 1-14.

And Jesus answered and spake again in parables. The

Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a certain king, which

made a marriage for his son; and sent forth his servants

to call them which were bidden to the wedding; and they

would not come. Again, he sent forth other servants,

saying, 'Tell them which are bidden, I have prepared my

dinner; my oven and my fatlings are killed, and all

things are ready; come unto the marriage. But they

made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm,

another to his merchandise : and the remnant took his

servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.

But when the king heard thereof, he was uroth; and he

sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and

burned up their city. Then saith he to his servants, The

wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not

worthy. Go ye into the highways, and as many as ye

shall find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went

out into the highways, and gathered together all as many

as they found, both bad and good; and the wedding was

furnished with guests. And when the king came in to

see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a

wedding garment: and he saith unto him, Friend, how

camest thou in hither, not having a wedding garment ?

And he was speechless. And he said to the servants,

Bind him hand and foot, and cast him into outer darkness;

there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many

are called, but few chosen.

But when the Pharisees had heard that He had put the

Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together; and one

of them, which was a lawyer, asked Him a question,

tempting Him, and saying, Master, which is the great

commandment in the Law ?

Then spake Jesus to the multitudes and to His disciples,

saying, The Scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat.

all therefore whatsoever they bid you do, that do; but do

not afier their scorks.

And Jesus went from the temple, and departed. And His

disciples came to Him to shew Him the buildings of the

temple. And He ansurered and said unto them, See ye not

all these things ? Verily I say unto you, there shall not be

left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown

dowon.
