Matthew 21:33 Listen to another parable: There was a certain landowner who planted a vineyard. He hedged it round about, chiseled a winepress {1} in it, built a tower, and then leased it out to sharecroppers and went away into a far country. 34 When the time of the harvest drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants that they might receive his share of the harvest. 35 The tenants took his servants and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. 36 He again sent even more servants than he did at the first and they did to them likewise. 37 Last of all he sent his son to them, thinking, ‘They will respect my son.’ 38 But when the tenants saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir! Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.’ 39 They caught him, dragged him out of the vineyard, and slew him. 40 When the owner of the vineyard comes, what do you think that he will do to those tenant farmers?” 41 They replied to him, “He will utterly destroy those miserably wicked men and will lease out his vineyard to other sharecroppers who will deliver the fruits in their seasons.” 42 Yeshua said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone which the builders rejected, the same has become the head of the corner! This is YeHoVah’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes!’ 43 Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of JeHoVah shall be taken from you, and given to gentiles who bring forth the fruits of the kingdom. 44 Whoever falls on this stone shall be broken, and on whoever it falls, it will grind him to powder.” 45 Now when the ruling cohenim and Prushim had heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke against them. 46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they drew back because they feared the multitude who took him for a prophet.
{Mt 21:33.1} A winepress is dug (KJV) by chiseling out a stone to form an area for pressing the grapes by foot which then drains down into a lower collection vat.
Mark 12:1 Yeshua spoke this parable to the people. “A certain man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and chiseled a place for the wine vat, and built a tower, and leased it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country. 2 At the harvest season, he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 But they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty. 4 Again he sent to them another servant, and they cast stones at him, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated. 5 Again he sent another; and they killed him, and he sent many others; they beat some and killed some. 6 Yet having one son, his well beloved, at the last he sent him to them also thinking, ‘They will surely reverence my son.’ 7 But those husbandmen said among themselves, ‘This is the heir! Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.’ 8 So they took him, and killed him, and dragged him out of the vineyard. 9 Therefore, what shall the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. 10 Have you not read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner! 11 This was YeHoVah’s doing, and yet it is marvelous in our eyes!’ 12Then they sought to lay hold on him, but they feared the people, for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them. Then they left him, and went their way.
Like the waves that cast white upon the sea, so shall the knowledge of the Glory come upon you and upon me.
Luke 20:9 Yeshua began to speak to the people this parable: “A certain man planted a vineyard, and leased it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time. 10 At the harvest season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him some of the fruit of the vineyard, but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty. 11 Again he sent another servant and they beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty. 12 Again he sent a third and they wounded him also, and cast him out. 13 Then said the master of the vineyard, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be they will reverence him when they see him.’ 14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, ‘This is the heir! Come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’ 15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. Therefore, what shall the master of the vineyard do to them? 16 He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others.” When they heard it, they said, “YeHoVah forbid!” 17 Yeshua stared them in the eye and said, “What is the meaning of this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?’ 18 Whoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.” 19 The same hour the ruling cohenim and the sages sought to lay hands on him, for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them, but they feared the people.
Excerpt From: Michael John Rood. “The Chronological Gospels.” iBooks. https://itun.es/us/SWrxQ.l
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
The words were strong and delivered as the builders stone thrown upon them. The revelation rained down three times, once for the Father, once for the Son and the once for the Holy Spirit. This dear friend is how we know the scriptures have spoken truth.
The Jews could not see it, but they knew in there hearts the words that were said in truth. They realized the spirit beat upon them, from within their hearts they knew. They would have to take this “man” down for he was battling, winning in the unseen world, the mysteries of the spirit were upon them as a birthing womb. The unseen world blinded them, impart and stired up their religious sprit to say. We must slay The Prophet spoken of by Moses the on who we must Shema each and every day!
Oh Mighty YeHoVah open our eyes that we may see, the truth hidden in the words of Yeshua, those words put there for the Jews and for Gentiles like me. Let us be humble and offer The Way of old. Let us, with love, bring the jews back into the sheep fold. Come and enter with us, hear the parable again, perhaps the appointed time is upon us that you will receive your sight once again.
The Stone the Builder’s rejected has now become our ROCK, the head of the Corner! Yeshua LIVES!
