The parable of the prodigal son is one of the important parables told by Jesus. This parable contains teachings about God's kingdom and people's reactions.

1. Introduction to the parable (Matthew 21:33-34)

  • A particular homeowner creates a vineyard and removes empty rocks to plant vines. After he went abroad, he handed over the vineyard to the vineyard workers.

2. Farmers’ rebellion (Matthew 21:35-36)

  • The woodmen beat or kill the landlord's servants, sometimes ignoring them, and discuss whether to have their crews deal with the neighbors they send to fetch the treasure.

3. The behavior of the householder (Matthew 21:37-40)

  • The landlord sends servants many times, but the farmers reject or abuse them all. Finally, he sends his son and says, “I will honor my son.”

4. Farmers’ crimes (Matthew 21:41)

  • When the farmers saw the landlord's son, they said, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and hand over his inheritance to us."

5. Interpretation of the Parable (Matthew 21:42-45)

  • Jesus speaks to the Jewish leaders through this parable. They hear this parable and understand that they are not acting as part of the Kingdom of God.
  • As Jesus says in the written Bible, "The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. This is the word of the Lord and a miracle. Therefore, from this vineyard, you have given me a seed of overflowing joy."
  • In response, the Jewish leaders try to arrest Jesus, but because his time is not yet up, Jesus leaves first.

The meaning and lesson of the parable

  • Hereditary inheritance of the Kingdom of God : The Kingdom of God is a treasure entrusted to us, and we must treat it properly. Like the farmers, we can reject and rebel despite receiving God's grace and blessings.
  • Rejection of God's ways : Jewish leaders rejected Jesus and even tried to kill him. This is the result that occurs when God’s people reject God’s ways.
  • God's Rebuke and Love : In the parable, the householder sends his servants several times to give advice to the farmers, but they all reject him. This shows God’s love and patience. God continues to give us opportunities and exhort us, but if we reject His ways, He will also receive a reprimand.

The parable of the prodigal son contains a warning about responsibility for God's kingdom and God's love and rebuke. This is one of the important parables that reminds us that God's people must always live according to God's will, and that they will be held accountable when they go against God's ways.
