In scripture God is often imaged as a great farmer of vines. God expects those who work in the vineyard to bring forth the fruits of justice and righteousness, namely wellbeing and what is right for everyone. Jesus revisits the image in parables. In this parable the tenants refuse to produce the fruit. This is a challenge to God’s vineyard workers in every age to listen, learn, repent, and act when God sends messengers to help us bring forth a good harvest of justice and righteousness.
