Parable of Wicked Vine Dressers

Parable of the Vineyard applies generally at the time of Solomon. Solomon behaves prophetically as a type of Christ. Matches the years 9991-10020 AA and more. The parable is telling a story that stretches across the time of the kings.

Matthew (P) Mark (P) Luke (P)

41 Matthew 21:33-22:0
33Hear another parable. There was a man who was a householder, and he planted a vineyard, and fenced it, and he dug in it a winepress, and built a tower, and then he leased it to laborers, and went away on a journey.
34And when the fruit season was at hand, he sent his servants to the laborers, that they might send him the fruits of his vineyard.
35And the laborers seized his servants, and some were beaten, and some were stoned, and some were killed.
36Again, he sent other servants, many more than the first; and they did to them likewise.
37At last, he sent his son to them saying, They might feel ashamed before my son.
38But when the laborers saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him and retain his inheritance.
39So they seized him, and took him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
40When the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those laborers?
41They said to him, He will destroy them severely, and lease his vineyard to other laborers, who will give him fruit in their seasons.


42Jesus said to them, Have you never read in the scripture, The stone which the builders rejected, the same became the cornerstone; this was from master, and it is a marvel in our eyes? (26:118:22)
43Therefore I say to you that the kingdom of god will be taken away from you and will be given to a people who bear fruit.
44And whoever falls on this stone will be broken, and on whomever it falls, it will destroy.


45When the high priests and Pharisees heard his parables, they understood that he was speaking against them.
46So they wanted to arrest him, but they were afraid of the people, because they regarded him as a prophet.

42 Mark 12:1-12
1And he began to speak to them in parables. A man planted a vineyard and fenced it all around, and he dug in it a wine press, and built a tower in it, and then he leased it to laborers and went on a journey.
2And in due season, he sent his servant to the laborers, to receive some of the fruits of the vineyard.
3But they beat him and sent him away empty.
4And again, when he sent to them another servant, they also stoned him and wounded him, and sent him away in disgrace.
5And again, he sent another, but they killed him; and he sent many other servants, some of them, they beat, and some, they killed.
6But finally, he had a very beloved son, and he sent him to them last of all, for he said, They might feel ashamed before my son.
7But the laborers said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
8And they took and killed him, and threw him outside of the vineyard.
9Then, what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those laborers, and give the vineyard to others.
10Have you not read this scripture: The stone which the builders rejected, the same became the cornerstone?
11This was from master, and it is a wonder in our eyes. (26:118:22)


12They wanted to seize him, but they were afraid of the people; for they knew that he spoke this parable against them; and they left him and went away.

43 Luke 20:9-19
9And he began to speak this parable to the people. A man planted a vineyard, and leased it to laborers, and went on a journey for a long time.
10And at the season, he sent his servant to the laborers to give him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the laborers beat him and sent him back empty.
11And again, he sent another of his servants; but they also beat him and treated him shamefully and sent him back empty.
12And again, he sent the 3rd one; but they also wounded him and threw him outside.
13Then the owner of the vineyard said, What should I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will see him and feel ashamed.
14But when the laborers saw him, they reasoned with themselves saying, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
15So they cast him out of the vineyard and killed him. Therefore what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16He will come and destroy those laborers, and give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, This will never happen.
17But he looked at them and said, What is it that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same became the cornerstone. (26:118:22)
18Whoever falls on that stone will be broken; and whomever it falls on, it will destroy.


19The high priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour; but they were afraid of the people; for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them.

Parable of the Two Sons

This parable matches the northern and southern kingdoms of ancient Israel. The first rebelled at Solomon’s death (see the next parable) but turned around and became faithful, while the southern kingdom became faithless. Matches the next parable in sequence.

Matthew (P)

41 Matthew 21:28-32
28What do you think? A man had 2 sons, and he came to the 1st one and said to him, My son, go and work today in the vineyard.
29He answered and said, I do not want to, but later he regretted and went.
30And he came to the other one and said to him likewise. And he answered and said, Here I am, my master, yet he did not go.
31Which of these 2 did the will of his father? They said to him, The 1st one. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that even the tax collectors and the prostitutes will precede you into the kingdom of god.
32For John came to you in a righteous way, and you did not believe him; but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him; but you, even though you saw, did not repent, so that later you may believe him.

Wedding Feast Parable

The parable matches ancient Israel, from Solomon (10020 AA) to the destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar’s army. It continues with the going out to search on the roads. This matches the departure of Israel from the promised land to all points. The king eventually came, Jesus, but found many who were not dressed correctly.

Matthew (P)

41 Matthew 22:1-14
1And Jesus again answered by parables, and said,
2The kingdom of the skies is like a king who gave a marriage feast for his son.
3And he sent his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast, but they would not come.
4Again, he sent other servants and said, Tell those who are invited, Look, my supper is ready, and my oxen and fatlings are killed, and everything is prepared; come to the marriage feast.
5But they sneered at it, and went away, one to his field, another to his business;
6and the rest seized his servants and insulted them, and killed them.
7When the king heard it he was angry; and he sent out his armies and destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
8Then he said to his servants, Now the marriage feast is ready, and those who were invited were unworthy.
9Therefore go to the main roads, and whomever you may find, invite them to the marriage feast.
10So the servants went out to the roads and gathered together everyone they could find, bad and good; and the wedding house was filled with guests.


11When the king entered to see the guests, he saw there a man who was not wearing wedding garments.
12And he said to him, My friend, how did you enter here, when you do not have wedding garments? And he was speechless.
13Then the king said to the servants, Bind his hands and his feet and take him out into darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14For many are called, and few are chosen.

Day/Year Passion Replay

This story most dramatically replayed on 2001-09-11 with the destruction of the Twin Towers in New York City. The workers of the vineyard were being replaced for having rejected Jesus. The financial system of the United States was slowly being destroyed.

This same story replayed again on Sunday, October 25, 2009, when another pair of suicide bombers struck in Baghdad. This time it was a pair of government buildings that were attacked. Over 150 were killed, over 700 injured.

The timing of this Baghdad attack was slightly early, but the focus appears to be on the cleanup and aftermath and not so much on the moment of the bombing itself.

A few hours later there were a pair of helicopter crashes in Afghanistan. In the first pair a Black Hawk was apparently struck by RPGs soon after takeoff. The surviving crew were rescued by the second Black Hawk flying in the pair. Then, in a second episode a pair of other helicopters struck each other in flight.

After 911 the decision was made to invade Afghanistan, and these helicopters appear to represent the entire decision making process. Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, is the same name as a city invaded by Solomon in his day, later called "good for nothing" by the king from Tyre.

Barack Obama gave a speech on Monday, September 26, 2009, at Jacksonville, Florida. In it he mentioned the process going on with Afghanistan.

And while I will never hesitate to use force to protect the American people or our vital interests, I also promise you this -- and this is very important as we consider our next steps in Afghanistan: I will never rush the solemn decision of sending you into harm's way. I won't risk your lives unless it is absolutely necessary. (Applause.) And if it is necessary, we will back you up to the hilt. Because you deserve the strategy, the clear mission, and the defined goals as well as the equipment and support that you need to get the job done. We are not going to have a situation in which you are not fully supported back here at home. That is a promise that I will always make to you.

This quote was about his decision making process on sending more troops to Afghanistan. Obama has been hosting meetings and working on Afghan strategy, and has taken heat from people like former VP Cheney who claims his slow process is causing troop loss and other collateral damage.

Obama's strategy meetings began in the weeks ahead, and match former President Bush's pre-911 planning for his invasion of Afghanistan.

Of note former President George Bush began a new job of motivational speaking, a match to his own history after 911 where he became the nation's motivational speaker. (Remember the bull horn on the rubble of 911.) This time he drew nearly 11,000 in his audience.
