Matthew 21:33-46
Passage
This parable was about the Jewish nation who had enjoyed the special care and goodness of God for centuries.
God had given them good laws. God had favored them above other nations. But they still rejected Him.
God had sent the Old Testament prophets and John the Baptist to them. But they tortured and killed them.
God then sent His Son to them. But they did not respect His Son! They murdered the sinless Savior!
God finally rejected the Jewish nation. The Kingdom is given to other nations! It was given to the Church!
Response
Let us respect the Son of God by obeying Him, and by giving Him first place in our lives.
Prayer
Oh God, help me submit to Your Son, and serve Him only! Amen.
